Raoof Khalish is one of the most eminent poets of Hyderabad Deccan who went through a sea change during the decade of 1960s, generating a wave of modern thought and expression. An Architect by profession, he spent 15 years in Saudi Arabia (1981-1996) following the Petro Dollar boom.The stay abroad widened his horizon and added new images cropped up in his poetry. Limitless desert, scanty-leafed palm trees, hot and humid days, the distance of seven seas and smells of Middle East contributed a unique angle to his poems.
Shaakhsana is the fourth collection of his poetry. He thinksthat instead of "producing" poetry and literature, it is just enough for our well-being if this literary world is propelled towards the goals of "creation".
