Winter-Over is a seriocomic, slightly obscene novel that tells the story of a year at Amundsen-Scott Station at the South Pole, including Cooper Gosling\u2019s eponymous \u201cwinter-over\u201d (very few people stay at the station over the polar winter due to harsh physical and psychological conditions).
