Take us the Little Foxes by Miles Burrows
A Collected Poems that at turns cuts and stumbles through the self-contradictions, self-deceptions, and absurdities of everyday life.
'A much travelled poet-doctor, Burrows brings finesse, imagination and a fierce sense of humour to his work, synchronising the arts of comedy, storytelling and verse-making to remind us that there's a craft fundamental to all three - the craft of timing' - Carol Rumens, The Poetry Review
