The Autobiography of Chaos

About the Book

My book, The Autobiography of Chaos, begins with a description of the Greek mythological figures and then transforms them into modern-world social, political, and moral upheaval—in which, like the ancient Greek tragedies, they (particularly the ancient greek chaos) meet with great difficulties.

About the Author

Born in Teaneck, New Jersey, in 1958, the author spent his formative years in the nearby town of Wyckoff. He began writing poetry in college in 1977. Graduating from Cornell University, he attended medical school for one year. Later receiving a master’s degree in physics, he worked at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Mr. Hermida’s poetry, with touches from his life experiences, has been called erudite but accessible. You will find his work as enjoyable and fascinating.
