Zurdo..! is a science fiction fantasy about a loser looking for a lost Vaginal Davis film in a post-literate world.
The year is 69.69. In the wake of a civilization-crushing catastrophe known as the Great You Know What, a new people emerge. This writhing mass of just-now beings with their not-yet culture sift through the rubble of their un-society in order to recover the past. They are idiots.
Zurdo, one such idiot, looks to historical artifacts in order to read—and misread—the future. The reptilian third eye on zir forehead has been shut since birth. But ze can feel it: a 1,000-year-old truth buried deep between zir eyebrows. It is a molar of infinitude, a big waiting for its bang. Zurdo believes that if ze can recover the past, ze might be able to finally open zir long-dormant optic for good. Ze has heard rumors of a lost film called The White to Be Angry, and now ze has a name—Vaginal Creme Davis. Equipped with these clues, Zurdo sets off in search of the not yet foreseen…
