HEAVEN HAS EYES BOOK TOUR

In tender, luminous writing, Philip Holden explores piercing psychological questions about what it is like to be haunted by one's past. Set in Singapore, Vancouver, London, and the spaces in between, the short stories in Heaven Has Eyes offer an imaginative, penetrating look at the complexities of migration, belonging, and a desire to find a home in the world.

Philip Holden will be in New York, Boston and Vancouver between January to February 2026 to launch Heaven Has Eyes. Please check out the book tour dates and locations – we'd love for you to join us!
