Review:
An intimate and imaginative follow-up graphic memoir to Lust's Ignatz award-winning punk travelogue.
Lust's bluntly honest account grants us a look at a courageous but alarming life.
Lust's energetic, searching book ... reveals the power of desire -- and the pain when jealousy rears its head.
A wonderful testament to the power of auto-bio graphic memoir.
Lust is determined to live her truth, even occasionally putting herself in physical danger. At other times, she's left contemplating the line between self-actualization and selfishness. Lust relates all this in an uncompromisingly frank manner, with anthropological detail. It's a rich narrative.
