description: This volume comprises Agha Shahid Ali's (1949-2001) final two verse collections. In "Call Me Ishmael Tonight" the poet offers a new form - the Maerican ghazal - written as a salutation to his eminent poet contemporaries in the USA. In "Rooms Are Never Finished" the poet follows the trail of his previous collection titled "The Country Without a Post Office" in order to excavate the devastation wrought upon Kashmir, his childhood home.
