Artham Anartham - Vol 1 by Somnath Sengupta [Hardcover]

"All around the world in this company-driven world, various types of theft and fraud occur daily – sometimes involving top corporate executives, plant managers, company cashiers, office managers, or sales personnel. Sometimes it involves the company’s dealers or agents, or the company's suppliers. The incidents related to this ‘third vice’ of the corporate world remain highly confidential – most companies do not wish to speak about these sensitive issues outside. To the general public, this is an unknown world.

This new book ‘Arthom Anarthom’ is based on some thriller stories from that fraudulent world. The author himself is a Chartered Accountant by profession and has been working as a corporate auditor in various companies for over three decades. Through his profession, the author has witnessed various manifestations of human greed up close in his daily work and still does, seeing both the faces and the masks of people. Although the places, subjects, and names in these stories have been changed, and the author’s imagination has mingled with them – at the end of the day, ‘Arthom Anarthom’ is essentially based on the author's daily corporate experiences spanning the past 34 years. In this book, the author has tried to present the technical aspects as simply as possible to the readers, to make them easier to understand, and has tried to keep popular commercial terms in English as much as possible. Needless to say, there hasn't been much work on this aspect in Bengali literature."
