Priya A. S. is a Malayalam-language writer from Kerala state, India. She is currently working as Senior Grade Assistant at Cochin University of Science and Technology. Her oeuvre consists of short stories, children's literature and memoirs.[1] She has also translated Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things into Malayalam under the title Kunju Karyangalude Odeythampuran.
