Reviews
"This stunning collection of vignettes from artist, punk rocker, and Whiting Award winner Purnell forms a delightfully crass, kaleidoscopic worldview. Each story introduces new heartbreaks and reminders that moments of intimacy often end in loneliness . . . Purnell brilliantly immerses the reader in Black, queer desire with humor, self-awareness, and just the right amount of vulgarity." -- Publishers Weekly "Each story in 100 Boyfriends is a minor eclipse: stunning in scope, technically blinding, and entirely miraculous . I laughed and I cried and I laughed until I cried-- Brontez Purnell is a marvel. " --Bryan Washington, author of Memorial and Lot "In the vast history of the universe there is only one Brontez Purnell , and thank god we get him. From cruising to crushes, cumming to closure, 100 Boyfriends is a mandatory read for the funny-sexy lit freaks among us --a candy box of Euro boys and Daddies, blue pills and satanic exes--all told in an addictively-delicious voice by a writer who is somehow both wildly cool and deprecatingly humble at the same time." -- Melissa Broder, author of The Pisces and So Sad Today "Brontez Purnell has such seemingly casual genius that at times you forget you're reading a book and are transported to some couch/bus/basement where the drugs are really good and your friend is really funny, maybe your weird closeted cousin is on HarlemHookups in the corner, and all of a sudden your friend says some fucking Sappho ass, weird ass, brilliant ass bullshit . I love this slut of a book, it's a slut ass maker. 100 Boyfriends or no new boyfriends at all, Purnell's autofiction/memoir/whatever the hell this marvelously sad and intoxicating book is shook me up good with its honesty and blunt-to-face endings, the jokes and stories I didn't know we were allowed to tell outside of circles of faggots and misfits. But this book is in those circles, makes you tea and steals for you, it invites us in, but would we mind shutting the hell up cause it's a little hungover? The light is coming through the windows so clear." -- Danez Smith, author of Homie " No one writes like Brontez Purnell. It's not just that he is hilariously irreverent, which he is, but that he reserves reverence for that which is deserving. 100 Boyfriends is like a good lover, at turns vulgar and vulnerable, dirty and desperate, and always grinding toward magic. " -- Justin Torres, author of We the Animals " Scathingly lucid, filthily pure, this is the most astute, witty, acid-tongued and emotionally generous book about relationships --from one night stands to internet no-no's to ill-conceived crushes to long-term loves, requited and otherwise--I've read. Painfully knowing yet never jaded , 100 Boyfriends dissects, explodes, lambasts, and revels in the ugly beauty of imperfect intimacies with prose that consistently puts its finger on the bleeding pulse of contemporary desire . An unforgettable ode to the heart that beats inside every longing body."-- Maryse Meijer, author of The Seventh Mansion "The stories in 100 Boyfriends took me on a journey : They made me laugh. They made me gasp. They made me feel. Brontez Purnell is a vibrant literary voice you won't soon forget . I love this book." -- De'Shawn Charles Winslow, author of In West Mills, "In the vast history of the universe there is only one Brontez Purnell , and thank god we get him.

Synopsis
Winner of the 2022 Lambda Literary Award in Gay Fiction. A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice. Longlisted for the 2022 Mark Twain American Voice in Literature Award and the 2021 Brooklyn Public Library Literary Prize. One of Buzzfeed 's Best LGBTQ+ Books of 2021, NBC's 10 Most Notable LGBTQ Books of 2021, and Pink News ' Best LGBTQ Books of 2021. "This hurricane of delirious, lonely, lewd tales is a taxonomy and grand unified theory of the boyfriend, in every tense." -- Parul Sehgal, The New York Times "I loved this book -- raunchy, irreverent, deliberate, sexy, angry, and tender, in its own way." -- Roxane Gay An irrerverent, sensitive, and inimitable look at gay dysfunction through the eyes of a cult hero Transgressive, foulmouthed, and brutally funny, Brontez Purnell's 100 Boyfriends is a revelatory spiral into the imperfect lives of queer men desperately fighting the urge to self-sabotage. As they tiptoe through minefields of romantic, substance-fueled misadventure--from dirty warehouses and gentrified bars in Oakland to desolate farm towns in Alabama--Purnell's characters strive for belonging in a world that dismisses them for being Black, broke, and queer. In spite of it--or perhaps because of it--they shine. Armed with a deadpan wit, Purnell finds humor in even the darkest of nadirs with the peerless zeal, insight, and horniness of a gay punk messiah. Together, the slice-of-life tales that writhe within 100 Boyfriends are an inimitable tour of an unexposed queer underbelly. Holding them together is the vision of an iconoclastic storyteller, as fearless as he is human.
