Belle Burden, STRANGERS: A Memoir of Marriage

from Totally Booked with Zibby

Zibby chats with debut author Belle Burden about STRANGERS: A Memoir of Marriage, an unforgettable, aching, transcendent exploration of love, betrayal, and rebuilding after the sudden end of a marriage (and Zibby's Book Club pick!). Belle describes the shock of her husband leaving during COVID, the disorienting aftermath, and how she pieced together meaning without answers. She and Zibby talk candidly about family legacies, grief, parenting through trauma, community, and the power of writing to make sense of the unimaginable.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3LmhojjShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
