Summary: "A lángban álló szigettenger" by Jules Verne is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a tumultuous period marked by Greek struggles for independence against Ottoman rule, featuring characters like Starkos Miklós and his mother, Andronika, as they navigate personal and national conflicts. The novel explores themes of bravery, loyalty, and the complexities of familial bonds set against a backdrop of war and rebellion. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to a scene on October 18, 1827, where a small Levantine ship is attempting to enter the Vitylos harbor amidst clear skies and treacherous waters. The local inhabitants, primarily composed of daring pirates from the Maina region, anxiously anticipate the approaching ship, speculating about its cargo and origin. Starkos Miklós, a pivotal character, is a seasoned sailor returning to his birthplace, hinting at his unresolved past with his mother, who had remained behind during his years of adventure at sea. Tension builds as the pirates, eager for spoils, observe Miklós's ship approaching, raising questions about loyalty, survival, and the harsh realities of a life intertwined with rebellion.
