Descripción: Literature of the fantastic and dystopian literature has often explored reproduction as a means of control exercised by societies over their subjects and mainly over women. Although this issue has been analysed in some classic examples of science fiction such as Brave New World (1932) by Aldous Huxley, Swastika Night (1937) by Katharine Burdekin or, more recently, The Handmaid’s Tale (1985) by Margaret Atwood, this article will examine the forms of surrogacy that appear in contemporary Hispanic texts. Stories by Elia Barceló, Claudia Salazar, Gemma Marchena, Gabriela Bustelo, Olga Fresnillo and Lina Meruane reflect on the meanings of these ‘delegated’ gestations, by means of natural or artificial wombs. In many cases, this form of maternity is an expression of subjugation to the hegemonic powers that be; in others, it serves as an effective weapon against the rulings of that same power.
