Sunflower: Collected Poems calls itself a journal for "the exchange of creative writing." Issue # 1 introduces the notion of "the Generation of [19]85," which appears to be linked to the shared history of editor Xu Jiang and contributors Yi Sha, Hou Ma and Sang Ke, fellow students of the Beijing Normal University Chinese Department in the 1980s. Over the years, Sunflower has had many prominent contributors.
