The Hungry Swan, a work of fiction, flows along the life of Jay.

Jay is born into an affluent family and has a chirpy and carefree life. However, inspired by a book that he accidentally finds in his grandparents’ attic, he sets out in search of the ultimate Truth; ‘Self-realisation’.

The Hungry Swan does not carry names of places, nor is it time specific; the narrative is around the life journey of Jay and the purpose is to stress on the fact that there are as many paths to realise the Truth as there are people. Everyone’s perspective is unique and the only fuel is, of course, the hunger.

Life helps by giving several hints to find appeasement of that hunger.

Such hints are woven into the fabric of life, so intricately, that one almost always misses them!

One has to go in search of it; Jay does too. But does he make it? Let The Hungry Swan take you out along with Jay, into the sky of the limitless!!
