About this event
An Exclusive Evening with Strangers Author Belle Burden Belle Burden is the author of the instant number one New York Times bestseller, Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage . Since publication, this deeply personal account of the breakdown of a marriage in New York high society has generated an enormous response. Praised as an instant classic by some and bitingly critiqued by others, the conversations started by the book around modern marriage, financial disparity, and spousal betrayal have radiated across culture and media. Netflix has acquired the rights to its production, with Gwyneth Paltrow already attached to executive produce and star as Belle. At the heart of the memoir’s runaway success we find one of the most universal questions: how do we go on when a loved one betrays us? On November 16 , Burden comes to the Intelligence Squared stage to reflect on the journey she has been on since the book’s publication, rebuilding a life after betrayal, and confronting the structures that still shape so much of modern love and relationships. Join Belle Burden live at Cadogan Hall and ask your questions in the audience Q&A.
