“I have always admired Brontez Purnell’s writing, and this novel is his greatest achievement yet. Purnell is never careful, never evasive. He hits you with honesty, passion, painful humor and never stops.”
—MIKE ALBO
“Brontez Purnell is foul-mouthed and evil. Be warned: this book will make you cackle out loud like you’ve got the Devil inside you then it will break your heart. Be careful where you read it. BUT DO READ IT.”
—JUSTIN VIVIAN BOND
“With epic detail and crude truth, Brontez Purnell reminds us that the lessons of survival and love are learned through life’s most fucked-up circumstances. Brontez has written a story that helps us laugh, grieve, and breathe.
—CRISTY C. ROAD
“Since I Laid My Burden Down has a fearless (sometimes reckless) humor as Brontez Purnell interrogates what it means to be black, male, queer; a son, an uncle, a lover; Southern, punk, and human. An emotional tightrope walk of a book and an important American story rarely, if ever, told.”
