Beschreibung
“A beautifully written eulogy for the loss of a relationship,” according to Joyce Carol Oates. How do we go on when a loved one betrays us? On a chilly day in March 2020, in the early days of the pandemic, Belle Burden’s husband of twenty years announced without warning that he was leaving her. His decision shocked Belle to her core: she believed he was happy, a committed partner and a devoted father to their three children. She thought he had settled into the life he had always wanted, with a successful career, summers at their beloved home on Martha’s Vineyard and plenty of tennis. Overnight, he changed from her steady companion into a stranger. As she rebuilds her life after a loss she never imagined, Belle discovers that she is far stronger than she expected. This memoir of self-discovery follows her transformation from a shy, quiet girl known as “Belle the Good” into a powerful, brave and determined woman who has learned to use her voice against the patriarchal structures that have long forced women to be discreet and compliant.
