THE ACCOUNTANT'S POETRY COMPANION - A PROPOSED BOOK
There has been, accumulated over the past six years, a sizeable body
of published poetry from critical accounting - largely in the journal Critical
Perspectives on Accounting. This web page is designed to provide a
taster proposal for a book: an anthology of critical accounting poetry.
The above selection of twelve poems serves to demonstrate the richness
and ranging topics covered by this innovative work from the accounting
academe. In its entirety, the slim version of this book of poetry will
contain a much larger collection numbering over 70 poems - to be selected
from all the past issues of the CPA Journal. Also planned as a complementary
product, will be an ascetically enhanced edition aimed to include original
B&W and colour photography exemplified by the small selection of Photographs.
All suggestions and support for the proposal, intention to adopt poetry
book or any other comments would be much appreciated. Please send them
to Professor Tony Tinker at Baruch College, City University of New York.
