The Baby in the Bag, A Politically Incorrect Tale by Doug Hanau



I wrote and self-published the satire entitled "The Baby in the Bag, A Politically Incorrect Tale." The main idea of this fictional novel is how an innocent author inadvertantly uses the term "midget" while appearing on the "Tonight Show", after which the dwarf nation seemingly sets out to destroy him while further gaining attention to their cause. The situations and characters are extreme as the author is also writing a detective story about a baby found inside a backpack inside a high school girls' locker room.

Those that have read it have told me its one of the funniest books they've read.
