Santeshivara Lingannaiah Bhyrappa (born 20 August 1931) is an Indian novelist, philosopher and screenwriter who writes in Kannada. His work is popular in the state of Karnataka and he is widely regarded as one of modern India's popular novelists.[2] His novels are unique in terms of theme, structure, and characterization.[3] He has been among the top-selling authors in the Kannada language and his books have been translated into Hindi and Marathi which have also been bestsellers.[4]
Bhyrappa's works do not fit into any specific genre of contemporary Kannada literature such as Navodaya, Navya, Bandaya, or Dalita, partly because of the range of topics he writes about. His major works have been at the center of several heated public debates and controversies.[5] He was awarded the 20th Saraswati Samman in 2010.[6] In March 2015, Bhyrappa was awarded the Sahitya Akademi Fellowship.[7] The Government of India awarded him with the civilian honour of the Padma Shri in 2016 and the Padma Bhushan in 2023.[8][9]
