In this special collection, we invite you on a powerful emotional journey—where food is not just a necessity, but a symbol of existence, desperation, and humanity. These short, haunting stories born from famines and hunger across the world speak of lives forgotten by history, yet remembered by the heart.

From the Bengal Famine of 1943 to the dark nights of 1974 in Bangladesh… from the heart-wrenching hunger of Ethiopia, Sudan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Korea, and Ireland—this anthology gathers real stories of people who endured the unimaginable. Even in some unseen corners of the modern world, the cry of hunger still echoes.

Here, you’ll read how a handful of rice cost someone their dignity, how a child stood at the edge of the city for a glass of milk, and how a stranger’s piece of bread became someone’s new beginning. These stories of famine are not just about death—they are about resilience, sacrifice, love, and the last flicker of human compassion.

If you are looking for stories that stir your soul, bring tears to your eyes, and ignite courage in your heart—this treasury of famine tales is calling to you. Though brief, each story transcends time and geography, leaving a mark on every reader.
