The Girl War, a metaphysical cartoon tragicomedy set to music and framed as an operatic screenplay, blends surrealist satire with philosophical wordplay. Authored by Denny Farrell and "ontranslated" from the invented dialect of "Nippontical," it tells the mythic tale of Egggracie-a girl caught in the aftermath of the cosmic "Girl War"-and her quest to redeem eternity through absurdist metaphysics, identity dislocation, and divine satire. Mixing poetic dissonance with linguistic invention, the book critiques conventional history, gender mythos, and theological absolutes in a hallucinogenic, theatrical spectacle.
