Author Willie Handler was a satirist well before he became a novelist. Hailing from Canada, where self-deprecating humor is part of the national character, he finds targets for his humor everywhere. His targets include friends, family, co-workers, politicians, farmers, subway passengers, bureaucrats, telemarketers, Martians, and his barber, Vince. In 2016, he released his first novel, a political satire, THE ROAD AHEAD. His second novel, a sci-fi spoof, LOVED MARS HATED THE FOOD was released in 2019. He has come up with a black comedy for his third novel, DEEP INTO THE WEEDS.
