Highway One, Antarctica

"Highway 1, Antarctica" is Justin Herrmann's debut collection of short fiction, describing working-class lives and characters in Antarctica, Alaska, and all the hot and cold places in-between. In the words of Richard Chiappone, "Justin Herrmann's voice stands out like a boulder anchored to the beach by authenticity and empathy. His working-class characters live just out of reach of contemporary middle-class life-and love. And Herrmann writes their stories with the respectful honesty of a guy who knows what it's like to work the late shift with an aching heart."
