The B-Side of Daniel Garneau concludes a rollicking three-book series set in Toronto featuring the misadventures of boyfriends Daniel and David, their eccentric family and friends. As Daniel prepares to graduate from med school and propose marriage, David sets out to donate his sperm so his brother can have a baby. But as his celebrity ex, Marcus, launches his boldest exhibit yet, an unexpected crisis forces Daniel to re-evaluate his priorities in life.

The B-Side of Daniel Garneau is the inspirational follow-up to A Boy at the Edge of the World (2018) and Tales from the Bottom of My Sole (2020). At turns both comic and tragic, it is a celebration of queer identities and non-traditional families, as Daniel struggles to discover himself and his path in the world. At its heart, it is a philosophical reflection on acceptance and living with courage and love.

Reviews for The B-Side of Daniel Garneau

A timeless, well-crafted story about love, family and friendship that transcends the LGBTQ+ genre. --IndieReader Equal parts raunchy and sweet ... A fun, funny look at gay life in Toronto. --Kirkus Reviews Laugh out loud ... Reminiscent of Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City. --Reedsy [On Tales from the Bottom of My Sole]: Yeh's theme of ""love and ridiculous gratitude"" for this ""entire ephemeral life"" stands as its own beautiful creation. A bighearted novel of yearning and human decency. -- ""Kirkus Reviews"" (6/19/2023 12:00:00 AM)
