Kozhikode (Kerala), Jun 8 (PTI) Prominent writer Sarah Joseph has been conferred with the 2024 Mathrubhumi Literary Award, which was presented to her by Jnanpith awardee and eminent writer Pratibha Ray at an event held here. She also said that writers, intellectuals and social workers are part of Malayalam culture and the voices that rise from here have great importance. 'Sarah Joseph is not just a name in Malayalam literature, she is a powerful voice. She raised her voice for the silenced. Her commitment to speaking the truth is evident in her stories, novels and articles. I express my sincere gratitude to Mathrubhumi for delegating me to present the Mathrubhumi Literary Award to Sarah Joseph,' Ray said. Mathrubhumi MD M V Shreyams Kumar, who presided over the event, said, 'Sarah Joseph is someone who expresses her opinions without any fear at a time when freedom of expression and freedom of press are being suppressed.' E Santosh Kumar, a member of the jury that selected Sarah Joseph for the award, termed her 'one of Kerala's most culturally valuable people'.
