Laxmanrao Sardessai (1904–1986) was an Indian poet and short-story writer. Considered one of Goa's finest writers in the Marathi language, he also wrote prose and verse in Konkani and Portuguese.
Sardessai was born in 1904, in Savoi Verem, and died in 1986. He lived, therefore, through the times of the Portuguese monarchy, the Portuguese First Republic, the Estado Novo dictatorship and the post-Liberation Indian government. His writings, which include over 700 stories in Marathi, provide a spectrum of Goa over the twentieth century.
