*by T***O on 28 February 2021*

Kim Peter Kovac’s new book “Border Sounds: Poems and Dispatches from Other Timezones” is a fascinating chronicle, mostly in the form of poems, of the people and places encountered in his extensive travels. The author takes us everywhere from South Africa to Azerbaijan, and introduces us to some interesting characters, including a man who may or may not have guarded Nelson Mandela, an SUV driver in Baku yearning for cultural understanding and sympathy, and a children’s book author with anger issues. In addition, Kovac addresses some more general topics, including struggles with the creative process in “Word-Flashlight”, the passing of a parent in “Vodka Blessing” and a one-paragraph summation of world religion in ”A Skeptic Reconsiders”. Kovac’s background as a theater professional places his stories in an interesting light, and a good deal of the travels described in Border Sounds were for the benefit of children, art and education. But I think what impressed me the most was the universality of these stories. In so beautifully describing these people and places, you can’t help but recall the people and places in your own life, and the impressions, both big and small, that they’ve made on your journey. I guess that’s what a good poet does: puts into words what we can only feel in out hearts. This book came into my life at the perfect time and I highly recommend it.
