About this Event

Book Launch: Alejandro Varela presents Middle SpoonAlejandro Varela—Greenlight neighbor, acclaimed author of The Town of Babylon, and editor-at-large of —returns to launch his latest novel Middle Spoon: a whipsmart, blazingly funny story about heartbreak, unconventional love, and the way society could be. One of TODAY’s 50 Books We Can’t Wait to Read in 2025, Middle Spoon skewers the unspoken rules we still live by—from taboos around intimacy to the shortcomings of Oscar season, pop culture, and gluten-free food—offering a surprising perspective on love, loss, and reinvention. Varela reads from and discusses the novel in-depth, before an audience Q&A and signing.
