Often praised for his unique style, Ravi Sastry supported marginalized communities.[1] Professionally, he was a lawyer.[2] EducationRachakonda Viswanatha Sastry graduated with honours to obtain his B.A. from Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. In 1946, he completed his B.L. degree at Madras University. Having gained professional expertise in law by working with Taatha Sriramamurthy, an established senior lawyer, he started his own law practice in 1950. He began his career as a dedicated congressional leader. In his later years (1960) he was influenced by Marxist theory. As a writerIn 1947, he observed the lifestyle of the inhabitants of Srikakulam and Vizianagaram, as well as major changes in urban lifestyles at Visakhapatnam. The perceived inhumanity in these new ways of life caused much distress, and Sastry was the first, after Gurajada Apparao and Sripadala, to employ dialects in writing about the effect of these changes.[3] First novelWritten in 1952, the novel Alpajeevi (Telugu: అల్పజీవి)[4] was an experimental foray into the world of Telugu literature. It was very well received and went on to become one of the most successful Telugu novels. Raavi Sastry was among the first authors in the region to write novels with syntactic similarity to the novels of James Joyce. Alpajeevi was the first novel with stylistic similarities to Chaitanya Sravanthi (Telugu: చైతన్య స్రవంతి). CareerAfter the novel Alpajeevi, he wrote two unfinished novels, Raju MahiShi (Telugu: రాజు మహిషీ) and Rattalu Rambabu (Telugu: రత్తాలు-రాంబాబు). Near the end of his career, he wrote the novel illu (Telugu: ఇల్లు). Alpajeevi is considered his best work among the several novels that he wrote during his career. But, "Raju Mahishi Prema Manishi" delved deep into the social fabric of the then middle class, lower class and upper class society and brought out the structural weaknesses plagueing those classes very articulately. In fact, it was compared to the beauty of the unfinished statue of lord Visweswara at Varanasi StoriesHe wrote six stories (Telugu: ఆరుసారా కథలు) which analyze the effects of the Liquor Act in Andhra Pradesh and also about the misuse of this Act. These stories are now famous in Telugu literature. List of his novels
