Sunflowers book review praises Kansas poetry collection
Alex Butts of the Kansas City Star notes Sunflowers as a modest volume of poems by Kansas State University writers. Introduction by Arthur Marsh frames the work as preserving charming expressions of life and nature rather than high art. The piece surveys Kansas themes, local scenes, and campus context, with broader remarks on the state’s literary imagination and resilience.
