Belle Burden on Her Memoir, Writing Through Pain, and the Sandwich Story the Internet Can't Stop Talking About
The hottest book of the year so far isn’t a steamy beach read or a page-turning thriller. It’s a heartbreaking — and empowering — memoir about a divorce. This week, Danielle sits down with Belle Burden to talk about her memoir, “Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage.” Belle Burden had a picture-perfect life. A husband in finance, three kids, a pristine apartment in Manhattan, and a summer home on Martha’s Vineyard. Then, one day — right at the start of the pandemic — she found out that her husband was having an affair. And the next morning, he tells her he wants out. Out of the house, out of the marriage — even out of custody for their kids. Belle talks about the upcoming Netflix adaptation of her book, starting over after watching her world as she knew it fell apart, and why she wishes a book like hers had existed long before now. BOOKS MENTIONED: Strangers by Belle Burden Barefoot Contessa by Ina Garten The Summer Pact by Emily Giffin The Academy by Elin Hilderbrand The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday When the Going Was Good by Graydon Carter Harriet the Spy by Louise Fitzhugh Heart the Lover by Lily King Go Gentle by Maria Semple Nine Stories by J.D.
