文学作品中令人不寒而栗的“邪恶组织”
Rachel Cantor’s debut novel, A Highly Unlikely Scenario (Melville House), will appeal to fans of Kurt Vonnegut, Ray Bradbury, and Douglas Adams, with its fusion of science fiction and literary fiction. The book’s plot, which concerns a future where fast food corporations run the world, is deliciously weird enough to work in its own warped way, walking the line between straight fantasy and fiction.
Rachel Cantor的首部长篇科幻小说《极不靠谱方案》（《A Highly Unlikely Scenario》）颇具严肃文学色彩，非常符合库尔特·冯内古特、雷·布莱伯利及道格拉斯·亚当斯的书迷们的口味。以受快餐集团控制的未来世界做为背景，该书的情节别具匠心且口味奇妙，轻快地游走在虚构与写实之间。
Can you imagine a world where Burger King really is the king, where Papa John is Big Brother, or where Colonel Sanders was worshiped as a deity? It might seem farfetched, but in a real world where some corporations earn more than some entire countries, and employ armies of workers, the idea might be more plausible than you think.
你能够想像一个汉堡王君临天下、棒约翰监控公众、肯德基上校被当成神明般供奉的世界吗？尽管看起来难以置信，但现实世界里富可敌国、坐拥劳工大军的商业集团却使这种假设变得眉目清晰起来了。
In A Highly Unlikely Scenario, the book’s protagonist works for Neetsa Pizza — a new bizarre corporation to add to the following list of the most memorably insane big businesses ideas in fiction along with these other six.
《极不靠谱方案》的主人公所供职的公司“泥沙披萨”（Neetsa Pizza）足够古怪，跻身于下文所述的六大组织间毫不逊色。它们都是文学作品所虚构的，最疯狂、最富于影响力的巨型商业组织。
