The work in progress title for a scifi short story that Bakker has finished but has not yet got around to publishing.
2018 Update: Yeah it got lost in another hard drive crash. Its my assumption that this will never be published.
... Another dead place.
2020 Update: From Three Pound Brain (https://rsbakker.wordpress.com/2020/02/10/lollipop-world/)
What are the odds that I would finish writing a near-future viral thriller (The Lollipop Factory) just as 2019-nCoV was becoming entrenched in Wuhan?
So he at least wrote it. Lets hope he uses "2019-nCoV" hysteria as motivation to publish it.

Wonder if Bakker will succeed in getting this published or not...

I love the title, especially given the context of his other scifi work like neuropath and crash space

I find what I could stand to read of Neuropath and Crash Space extremely disturbing and unnerving. Don't like reading them. At all.

I think that's his point- we don't want to face our future, but here it is!

Can't wait for this - anyone got any news?

Not since that last post link from Madness. AFAIK he's still finishing it and shopping it around, which doesn't mean much unfortunately.
