The Glitch in the Glitz by Dr Subbroto Ghoshal
Book review
Fictional stories based on real life experiences of an HR professional and a close friend!
Since I know Subbu (I call him that!) for some time now, this was a mighty drift from his routine!
He has already written or rather sketched two book on cartoons based on his corporate and family life! They were very well received and pretty hilarious!
So a serious novel on corporate politics and some romance was a big change!
The book is a simple collection of short stories with his added ‘life’ inputs! Most stories are inspired by his own interactions while some are the stories he would have heard!
I could relate to all his stories since I was a part of that messy corporate world of office politics some eons back!
My personal favorite was the beautiful love in office story told in a very tactful way while am sure many would find the ‘Life in Africa’ story really surprising and even scary!
There is a sense of being too ‘personal’ in the CEO story which Subbu confirmed to be true! Then the story of that pseudo hard worker was so relatable since there is always one in every office!
The language is simple and straightforward without any complication and you can finish the short and really true to life story in a short time indeed!
By keeping many of the stories open ended Subbu is telling us that life just continues! Every other day only a chapter gets over!
Overall an amazing light read! Do check it out!
