Synopsis

Caves of Chimera, a long lyrical narrative poem, depicts a man and his family caught in an Armageddon Earth. A young father, Doctor Richard Planck – whose thinking mind is formed with philosophical elements of the Enlightenment, Romanticism, Realism, and modern Abstract Expressionism – returns to an idyllic mountain in northern Spain where he first learned love years before with a beautiful aspiring Spanish novelist. Through epic poetry, the reader learns of his emotions, experiences, and struggles in an absurd world.
