About Mirji Annaraya.......2
An other writer to chronicle the early forties is Mirji Annaraya, an author of great distinction. He shot into prominence by his prize winning novel of Jain life in Karnataka called Nisarga, which is a story of frustrated love. Mirji Annaraya too, like Karantha, has tried to describe a village school master's life and his Ramanna Mastaru is an unique study by itself. In Prati Sarkar, Annaraya studied the Satara revolutionary upsurge of 1942 but his best contemporary study is Ashoka-Chakra, which tells the tragic story of an agriculturist against the given and sordid back-ground of rural indebtedness.

About Nisarga------1
Nisarga- a Kannada novel by Mirji Annaraya of Shedbal draws its material from a social life in north Karnataka. It is a story about the sufferings of the heroine who could not marry her childhood friend. It deals with the social life of north Karnataka around 1940. Childhood marriages were practiced in those years. People were illiterate and farming was the main occupation. Most of the marriages use to take place within the relationship. Love marriages are becoming common now a day and child hood marriages are completely banned after independence. Childhood marriages in those days are probably a method of parents to manage and bend their children as they like.

About Mirji Annaraya----1
Late Shri Mirji Annaraya’s first novel-Nisarga was published in 1945. At that time the age of Mirji Annaraya was just 27 (Birth Date: 15-8-1918). He must have started writing this book at least 1-2 years before its publication. That means his writing habit has started even much earlier. Mirji Annaraya wrote about 60 books and died on 23-12-1975 at the age of 57. His writing profession of 30 years from 1945 to 1975 resulted in 60 books means writing of 2 books per year.
