Winner of the Alistair MacLeod Prize for Short Fiction, A Thomas Raddall Atlantic Fiction Award Finalist, A 2022 ReLit Award Finalist, A Siskiyou Prize Semi-Finalist, and A Miramichi Reader Best Fiction Title of 2021, Hueberts stories are born from the oil-soaked swamps, carrying a bruised optimism that cherishes the beauty of our decaying world. Spanning a diverse range of characters, from refinery operators to long-term care nurses, dishwashers to preppers, and hockey enforcers, Chemical Valley weaves compassionate and intricate stories that explore the depths of our bio-chemical existence. With a full-hearted approach, laced with bruised optimism and a profound appreciation for the world's wilting and wheezing beauty, Chemical Valley doesn't shy away from pressing contemporary concerns such as toxicity distribution, environmental racism, and the role of technoculture in this ecological crisis. Instead, it grounds these anxieties in the vivid and often humorous intricacies of its characters' lives. Swamp-wrought and heartfelt, these stories burst with vital energy, teetering into crazed and delirious loves.
