THE TIGER AND THE COSMONAUT

Coming April 29, 2025

An atmospheric page-turner about a family reckoning with a mysterious loss from their past, how their insecurities have been exploited in their isolated town, and the rage they've been containing for years.

“A deftly woven novel about a family mystery, held for decades, that reveals the bottomless sorrow and reserves of strength found in one immigrant family. Eddy Boudel Tan is a savvy and sensitive writer who will, by turn, wow you with the turns in his story and move you to tears.”

— Kevin Chong, author of The Double Life of Benson Yu

Hello!

Eddy Boudel Tan writes stories that depict a world much like our own—the heroes are flawed, truth is distorted, and there is as much hope as there is heartbreak.

 

He is the author of The Tiger and the Cosmonaut, forthcoming from Penguin Canada. His novels After Elias and The Rebellious Tide have been finalists for the Edmund White Award, the ReLit Best Novel Award, and the Ferro-Grumley Award. In 2021, he was named a Rising Star by Writers’ Trust of Canada. His short stories can be found in Joyland, Yolk, Gertrude Press, and anthologies from Arsenal Pulp Press and Wolsak & Wynn. 

 

Eddy lives in Vancouver with his husband where he is currently writing his next novel while listening to the language of birds from his balcony.
