'Powerful, and darkly, disconcertingly comic' Margaret Walters, Sunday Times The acclaimed second novel from Kate Jennings, author of SNAKE. On Wall Street, reflects Cath, women are about as welcome as fleas in a sleeping bag. Funny, liberal and left-leaning, she is an unlikely candidate to be writing speeches on derivatives in a cubicle in a Manhattan tower. She finds herself on Wall Street because she needs serious money: after ten good years, her beloved older husband Bailey is suffering from Alzheimer's. So begins a journey into two nightmare worlds. By day Cath deals with the topsy-turvy logic and ingrown personalities at work in high finance; by night she has to watch the slow disintegration of the man she loves. In between, she must stop herself from falling apart.
