Raghavendra Patil (b.1951) belongs to the postmodernist group of writers in Kannada. Like his predecessors, U.R. Anantamurthy, Yahvant Chittal, Tejasvi and Shantinath Desai, he arrived at the novel through the short story. The Chariot (Teru), which won him the Sahitya Akademi Award, is his second novel. Though Patil belongs to the postmodern era, he does not share the thematic concerns or techniques of Western postmodernism. He is closer to the nativistic movement, which has already produced major writers like Chandrasekhar Kambar and Kum. Veerabhadrappa. He has also inherited some of the qualities of his famous uncle Anandakanda, such as an interest in local history and closeness to rural life. The story that Patil tells in The Chariot spans more than a hundred and fifty years, beginning with the years when the Peshva extended his rule to North Karnataka and ending with the years after the Emergency, and it relates to the Belagavi region, with its epicentre in an imagined but fully realised village named Dharamanatti. The novel offers two images of Teru, which in Kannada means both the chariot and the festival associated with it. The first is centred on an atrocious human sacrifice made in the name of religion by an autocratic ruler, and the second, distanced in time by a century and a half, mirrors the change from the feudal order to a democratic one, where religious superstition and feudal practices have been replaced by scepticism and the politics of power. The novel is remarkable for its innovative technique, which handles myth and reality with equal success.

Everyone regarded Anna as one of the most remarkable figures produced by Tamil Nadu. His greatness stems from the widespread acclaim he received from prominent leaders of his era. His various talents demonstrate his capabilities as an effective administrator, deep thinker, prolific writer, insightful journalist, and above all, a humanitarian that leaves us in awe of his literary contributions. He observed the living conditions of Tamils during his time and aimed to instigate change through his writing and speeches. Inspired by Periyar's thoughts and pride in Tamil heritage, he emerged as a towering advocate for humanism, dedicated to protecting the Tamil community and working toward their advancement. Anna once referenced influential figures like Shelley, Byron, Keats, Coleridge, Emerson, and Bacon, remarking that they are not foreigners in the truest sense. Is Tiruvalluvar simply a Tamil? They are all global citizens and educators, and Anna holds a similar esteemed position as a worldwide citizen. Anna is recognised as a pioneer in short stories that explore the tension between tradition and modernity. He is a relentless journalist and a guiding light as a dramatist. In addition to being a remarkable orator, his political acumen further defines him as the genius of his century. In summary, Anna is a true phenomenon.

Dr. Geetha Nagabhushana's work primarily focuses on the struggles of the distressed, exploited, and naïve individuals from slums or the lowest strata of the Hindu caste system. Her unique storytelling provides a glimpse into real-life experiences that resonate deeply with us, rather than simply presenting fictional characters. The Kannada dialect used in "Baduku" deserves special recognition for its authenticity and cultural richness. Throughout the novel, the hardships faced by those in the lowest tiers of the Varna system are depicted without any apologies. The portrayal of women's struggles in "Baduku" serves as a critique of patriarchal society. The novel offers a comprehensive view of society, addressing various forms of atrocity and oppression, including issues related to class, caste, and gender, as well as the challenges faced by both urban and rural downtrodden communities. There is no fair treatment found in any of these intersections.

Prema Jayakumar provides the English translation of S.K. Pottekkar's acclaimed Malayalam novel, ' Oru Deshanthinte Katha, ' published by Sahitya Akademi in 2015.

He recounts the lives of the residents of Athiranippadam. The novel is segmented into five parts: childhood, early youth, teenage years, and a final section called "marmarangal." It features a story told by Velu Mooper, who witnesses events after Sreedharan's father's death, following his extensive travels to North India, Africa, and Europe. Throughout the story, he encounters individuals who leave lasting impressions from different stages of life, including Emma from Switzerland, a Bengali Babu, his half-brothers Kunhappu and Gopalettan (who caused him suffering by contracting syphilis), the mother goddess psyche of a Tamil Brahmin woman, with whom he longs, a girl who loved him unrequitedly before dying of tuberculosis, pranks with the " Supper Circuit Set, " lost loves, profound loneliness, his father's legendary life, and his journeys across continents. He started by dropping off his widowed mother at her family's home, initially at Elanhippoyil, then heading to Bombay- a solitary voyage into the vast, bewildering world, as SKP describes. This haunting autobiographical novel spans about 60 years of history, reflecting on themes of memory, nostalgia, hardship, dreams, and numbness. It concludes with a monologue: "Forgive me, the representative of the new generation of Athiranippadam, forgive me for trespassing into your land, and consider me merely an antique collector, a non-native!"

Daatu is a powerful novel that explores the rigid boundaries of caste and community in rural India, and what it takes to cross them. Set in Karnataka, the story unfolds around deeply entrenched social structures where identity is dictated by birth, and every step outside those boundaries comes at a cost. At its core, Daatu is about transgression — the act of “crossing over.” Whether it is caste, relationships, or social norms, the novel examines what happens when individuals challenge the invisible lines that define their lives. The narrative is layered with realism, capturing village life with honesty and nuance. It reflects how traditions, power, and fear shape human behaviour, while also revealing moments of resistance, dignity, and change. Recognised as a significant work in Indian literature, Daatu offers readers not just a story, but a lens into the complexities of caste, morality, and social transformation.

Jatara is a novella (1988) that deals with the predicament of women in the countryside. It graphically captures the realities of the village society in Telangana as major and minor characters come alive. The writer presents the theme of corruption in all its stark dimensions-physical and moral degradation, psychological and emotional blackmail, and surrender to superstitions and deceit from the point of view of the protagonist. The author remains objective, a bystander, in focusing on the bright and dark sides of the rural society, on interpersonal relations, and their belief systems, while subtly suggesting what was needed. For its humanist vision and gripping narrative, the novella remains a classic in Telugu fiction.

In Heart Lamp, Banu Mushtaq exquisitely captures the everyday lives of women and girls in Muslim communities in southern India. Published originally in the Kannada, these portraits of family and community tensions testify to Mushtaq’s years as a journalist and lawyer, in which she tirelessly championed women’s rights and protested all forms of caste and religious oppression. Written in a style at once witty, vivid, colloquial, moving and excoriating, it’s in her characters – the sparky children, the audacious grandmothers, the buffoonish maulvis and thug brothers, the oft-hapless husbands, and the mothers above all, surviving their feelings at great cost – that Mushtaq emerges as an astonishing writer and observer of human nature, building disconcerting emotional heights out of a rich spoken style. Her opus has garnered both censure from conservative quarters as well India’s most prestigious literary awards; this is a collection sure to be read for years to come.
