Abstract

Ki.Rajanarayanan is a sculptor of karisal forest literature who is revered as the father of regional literature. Ki.Ra. completely dissolves his writing brush into the karisal soil and converses within the reader's mind as it is contextualized. Karisalkattu ecology is naturally threaded in the Koballa village narrative. "Is it possible to destroy the forest if you want this after the lace?". The voice of the narrator, who sounds in the storytelling, is an initiative of natural curiosity.  The story points to the hard work of the Kammawar people who migrated to the karisal land and the nuances of preparing the karisal earth for yield. Ki.Ra. Karisal also regretted the environmental pollution that occurs in the region while recording its normal life.
