Víctor Corrales is a Spanish writer and novelist. His stories move across science fiction, thrillers, historical fiction, metafiction, and existential comedy, but they all share the same obsession: using fiction to explore some of the great questions of human existence.
Identity, freedom, consciousness, survival, guilt, redemption, and the meaning of life take very different forms throughout his novels. In "Bajo el hábito, la espada", inspired by the historical figure of Catalina de Erauso, he takes readers to the Spanish tercios in Flanders during the Golden Age. In "El Club de los Suicidas Inmortales", he turns the impossibility of dying into a question about the meaning of living. "El Último Refugio", "La Mente Cuántica", and "Narrator's Syndrome" explore the boundaries of technology, consciousness, and reality itself, while "Una Vida de Milagros" uses humor and everyday life to delve into the search for meaning.
Trained as an engineer and working professionally in technology and digital product development, Víctor Corrales also brings to his fiction his fascination with complex systems, artificial intelligence, and, above all, the people trying to find their place within them.
He is also the author of "Hackea tu Tiempo", an essay on productivity, priorities, and the relationship we have with our time.
For Víctor Corrales, every genre is simply a doorway. What matters is creating a story that can entertain and, perhaps, leave the reader with a question they did not have before opening the book.
