Hagen Engler is an author of fiction and non-fiction books, a co-writer, a ghost-writer, a scriptwriter, a copywriter, a hustler in the media hood. He self-published half a dozen books before an established publisher finally risked it all on the cumbersomely titled Marrying Black Girls For Guys Who Aren’t Black. He has also edited a doomed consumer mag, surfed Hawaii, climbed Kilimanjaro, run the Comrades and eaten a half chicken and chips at the original Nando’s in Rosettenville. His latest novel, the satirical farce In The Maid’s Room, is about the slow, ignominious death of white entitlement.
