Rooms Are Never Finished: Poems
Agha Shahid Ali
In his previous collection, The Country Without a Post Office, Agha Shahid Ali excavated the devastation wrought upon Kashmir, his childhood home. Here he reveals a more personal devastation: his mother’s death and the journey with her body back to Kashmir. The result is a poetry of stunning formal inventiveness, infused with passion and grief.
