      For October, we'll be reading Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden (husband antagonist character attended Yale Law). #1 New York Times Bestseller. Netflix adaptation starring Gwyneth Paltrow in progress. A cautionary tale of the financial risks in marriage for women. Burden was born into a prominent and wealthy family. She was a lawyer, but she sidelined her career to support her husband and the demands of his job at a New York hedge fund, and to care for their children. They lived a lavish lifestyle for twenty years. Then, with no warning or explanation, her husband announced that he was leaving her. Overnight, her caring, steady partner became a man she hardly recognized. She was left with no income, and an ill-advised change to their prenuptial agreement in the days before her wedding left her with no claim to the wealth they had amassed during marriage.
