“Sébastien Bérubé is an artist from northwestern New Brunswick. Initially known as a singer-songwriter and poet, he made a sensational debut in the world of prose with *Rivières-aux-Cartouches*, a bestseller that won the *Combat national des livres* (Radio-Canada), the Champlain Prize, and the 2024 Éloize Award for Artist of the Year in Literature.

Bérubé offers a candid and sensitive perspective on his region and on social and political injustices. After working as a school cultural development officer for the Maliseet First Nation of Madawaska, then as program director for Éditions Perce-Neige’s “Voix émergentes” initiative, he is now a cultural worker and doctoral student, though he often takes time off to go hunting or to write when he’s not busy.”
