Die Frau als Mensch #[1]

Ulli Lust's Die Frau als Mensch opens with a striking cover that pulls you right into prehistory: two small, bundled figures huddle at the mouth of a vast, red-toned cave opening, icicles hanging at its threshold as snow dusts the rocky ground around them. The subtitle "Am Anfang der Geschichte" — "At the Beginning of History" — sets an ambitious, elemental tone, and Lust's linework, published by Reprodukt in 2025, already feels like it's reaching toward something ancient and deeply human.
