Portable City - Paperback

Portable City is primarily a travelogue composed of introspections on movement through both the physical world and nonlinear timelines. Introducing the concrete and the abstract to one another, it is an endeavor of braided language, some edges sharp and others softened. In its meditations, the collection builds dialogue between image and narrative, between the tangible and the intangible, and between the world at large and its most attentive observers."Portable City is a dream of a journey," writes Jesse Lee Kercheval."Kovacik...takes us to Warsaw but just as nimbly into the Brothers Grimm. With generous curiosity, she documents life's transient beauty in this wondrous travelogue that moves as easily through time as space."
