Francis Norona

Francis Norona is a Malayalam author. The Sensitive Father is a compilation of his short stories. Norona's writings are characterized by the faint expressions of coastal populations. Norona's writing became a frequent background for the lives of Latin Catholics who were expelled from Malayalam literature. His poetic language is a key contributor to the development of Malayalam letters. His novel The Gospel of the Neglected is the only work written about the life of the coastal people of Alappuzha.^{[citation needed]}
