Literature
Francisco gained prominence as a writer not only for his
social conscience but also for his “masterful handling of
the Tagalog language” and “supple prose style”. With his
literary output in Tagalog, he contributed to the
enrichment of the Filipino language and literature for
which he is a staunch advocate.
His reputation as the “Master of the Tagalog Novel” is backed up
by numerous awards he received for his meritorious novels in
particular, and for his contribution to Philippine literature and
culture in general.

He was awarded the National Artist for Filipino Literature in 2009.


Francisco also received the Republic Cultural Heritage Award for
Literature in 1970.
