The Wynona Stone PoemsPaperback, 15 December 2014

If long-dead poet E.A. Robinson and Sex and the City author Candace Bushnell had collaborated to depict a contemporary Midwestern woman in verse, they just might have come up with Wynona Stone, Caki Wilkinson's sort-of heroine, who is stuck in the hometown she always meant to leave, faced with a life that seems desperately mediocre. Wilkinson follows in the footsteps of Eliot and Berryman, giving us, in winsome poems, a figure at odds with herself and her surroundings.
