A lángban álló szigettenger by Jules Verne
"A lángban álló szigettenger" by Jules Verne is a historical novel published in 1884. Set during Greece's 1820s war of independence against Ottoman rule, the story follows Nikolasz Sztarkosz, a notorious pirate captain who encounters his mother Andronika, a freedom fighter who curses him at their family home. As European volunteers join the Greek cause and naval battles unfold, personal conflicts intertwine with the broader struggle for liberation, involving a French officer,
a banker's daughter, and prisoners of war in the flame-engulfed archipelago. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
