The speed of our beginning and the speed of our ending felt like matching bookends. They both came out of nowhere. He wanted it, he wanted me. And then he didn’t.In March 2020, Belle Burden was safe and secure with her family at their house on Martha's Vineyard, navigating the early days of the pandemic together—building fires in the late afternoons, drinking whisky sours, making roast chicken. Then, with no warning or explanation, her husband of twenty years announced that he was leaving her. Overnight, her caring, steady partner became a man she hardly recognized. He exited his life with her like an actor shrugging off a costume.In Strangers, Belle revisits her marriage, searching for clues that her husband was not who she always thought he was. As she examines her relationship through a new lens, she reckons with her own family history and the lessons she intuited about how a woman is expected to behave in the face of betrayal. Through all of it, she is transformed. The discreet, compliant woman she once was—someone whose nickname was “Belle the Good”—gives way to someone braver, someone determined to use her voice.With unflinching honesty and profound grace, Burden charts a path through heartbreak to show the power of a woman who refuses to give up on love and rediscovers trust in herself. Strangers is a stunning, deeply moving, compulsively readable memoir heralding the arrival of a thrilling new literary talent.Story Locale:Martha's Vineyard, New York CityBelle Burden is a pro bono immigration attorney specializing in juvenile cases. Her writing has appeared in the New York Times. She lives with her children in New York City. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/st-petersburg/the-library-book-club-september-strangers/100001993272197801 - **Event Categories**: art, theatre, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes - Location: The Library - inspired by the George Peabody Library - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 39.23, max: 39.23, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: St. Petersburg - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: The Library - inspired by the George Peabody Library - **lat**: 27.7639995 - **long**: -82.6397272 - **full address**: The Library - inspired by the George Peabody Library, 600 5th Street South, St. Petersburg, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Library Book Club | September | Strangers - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/841522ae57f90ffe9a0d3cb8f10dac1afb2b83fbe3514cc894cedf86cf395168-rimg-w1200-h600-dce1e7e7-gmir.jpg?v=1783781286 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Library Book Club | September | Strangers being held? - **A:** The Library Book Club | September | Strangers takes place on Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 07:30 pm at The Library - inspired by the George Peabody Library, 600 5th Street South, St. Petersburg, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Library Book Club | September | Strangers? - **A:** The Library Book Club | September | Strangers is organized by Oxford Exchange. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at Oxford Exchange's events? - **A:** Attendees have given Oxford Exchange a rating of 5/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
