Añó asks the reader to discover the 'deeper meaning' and to become involved in the events presented.Ģ019. Her novels cover a multitude of topics, treat actual and socially relevant problems such as injustices or poor communication between people and frequently, the core of her stories remains unexplained. The characters are the most important in her books, much more than the topic, due to 'an introspection, a reflection, not sentimental, but feminine'. Her writing focus on the characters' psychology, generally antiheroes. Some of her novels, short stories and articles are translated into Spanish, French, English, Italian, German, Polish, Chinese, Latvian, Portuguese, Dutch and Greek. Her most recent work 'El salón de los artistas exiliados en California' is a biography of scriptwriter Salka Viertel, a Jewish salonnière and well-known in Hollywood in the thirties as a specialist on Greta Garbo scripts.

'L'escriptora morta', in 2008 'Núvols baixos', in 2009, and 'La mirada del fill', in 2012. Her novel 'Els nens de l'Elisa' was third among the finalists for the 24th Ramon Llull Prize for Catalan Literature and was published in 2006.
