  • «Короли и капуста» (англ. Cabbages and Kings) — сатирическая повесть американского писателя О. Генри 1904 года, написанная на основе одноимённого переработанного сборника рассказов. На русский язык впервые была переведена Корнеем Чуковским. Действие происходит в вымышленной маленькой латиноамериканской стране под названием «Анчурия», которую сам писатель характеризует как «банановая республика» (термин придумал именно О. Генри): основной статьёй дохода страны является экспорт тропических фруктов в США. Население страны живёт в безделье и повальной нищете, правительство поголовно коррумпировано или играет в революции, американская пароходная компания дёргает за ниточки, а несколько предприимчивых американских искателей счастья попадают в круговорот самых неожиданных событий.
