These poems include takes on semi-rural existence, raising a family, and living in poverty. They also veer toward popular culture: using movies, music, social media language as jumping-off points or simply by taking those media’s forms. Burdick confronts the very embarrassment of simply being alive: excruciation, apology, loss, humour, mistakes, and grief—and the freedom achieved by acknowledging these things.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eBurdick’s first collection of new poems since 2018, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem style=\"color: black;\"\u003eOx Lost, Snow Deep\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003e will alter your ways of thinking and reading.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anvil Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66233777979741,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781772142419.MAIN.jpg?v=1792212739","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/ox-lost-snow-deep","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
