Ulli Lust's follow-up to the award winning Today is the Last Day of the Rest of Your Life picks up where its predecessor left off. Revealing and powerful, Lust recounts her life in Vienna in the 1990s and her relationships with two men where jealousy leads to violent outbreaks. How I Tried to Be a Good Person is a story of sexual obsession, gender conflict, and self-liberation, told with an honesty few cartoonists are capable of.
