Description	"Rubber" (1990) was the first published novel of Indian author Jeyamohan. It was the first major work in Tamil that explored ecological and environmental degradation in Tamil Nadu. Set as a multi-generational family drama taking place against the backdrop of rubber plantations, the novel describes the hunger for social and commercial growth that inevitably exploits the environment. Rubber, introduced into India as a cash crop, is the alien species that chokes the land and destroys the values symbolized by the traditional Banana tree. The novel won the Akhilan Memorial prize in 1990 heralding the arrival of Jeyamohan in the Indian literary scene.
