Robert‟s character is a well constructed protagonist in terms of character development and complexity. This is clearly Robert‟s story and his willingness to put his heart and soul in the line of fire in the pursuit of artistic excellence makes him a fascinating character. Robert is certainly no angel, yet through his faults and his humanity, an audience will identify with Robert as he navigates the murky currents of life.

SYNOPSIS

A married couple on the brink of disillusion allows a stranger to live with them in their idyllic cottage.

Will this stranger push their fragile state over the edge?

British War Poet Robert Graves was married with four children when he met Laura Riding, a writer from America studying at Oxford University.

With Nancy Nicholson, Graves’ first wife, the couple lived as a ménage a trios, which, with the arrival of Geoffrey Phibbs, became a ménage a quatre.

Tensions and rivalries became so fraught that Graves becomes a suspect for attempted murder.

Tired of the Victorian morals and British social structure that led to his war trauma, as well as the inhibitions imposed on his writing, Graves leaves England for good and settles with Riding on the Spanish island of Mallorca.

Before he leaves England, Graves publishes his famous war memoirs “GOODBYE TO ALL THAT”, as well as his first successful volume of poems containing some of the finest love poetry of the 20th Century.

Despite shell shock and being shackled by those around him, Robert transforms himself into “A Laureate.”
