Prairie Echoes: A Book of Poetry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781478723097)

A student and teacher of drama, writing, literature and speech, Suzanne Kee has lived mostly in Illinois and has gained an appreciation and reverence for the land, its animal and plant residents, and its rich history. From studies of anthropology and archaeology of the region she has discovered its uniqueness and essential contribution to the country's sustenance. Although an ardent traveler currently living in Florida, Suzanne admits that at the end of the day her heart turns toward the fields of Illinois wherein lie her roots. Until this volume, her published work has been limited to newspapers and scholarly magazines. Now a grandmother, Ms. Kee enjoys the lively arts, playing tennis and swimming, painting, volunteering, and caring for her dogs. She continues to capture poetic moments. Her undying gratitude goes out to Mr. Martin Kadansky of Kadansky Consulting, Inc., her expert editor for this collection, without whom the completion of the work would not have been possible.
