Orchid & the wasp : a novel / Caoilinn Hughes.
Gael Foess, daughter of a self-interested investment banker and a once-formidable orchestral conductor, and sister to a vulnerable younger brother, strives to build a life raft in the midst of economic and familial collapse. Moving by wits alone, she cuts a swathe through the leather-lined, coke-dusted social clubs of London, the New York gallery scene, and the birth-throes of the Occupy movement.
