Book Price $0 : When The Austro-Hungarian Empire Disintegrated After World War I, Control Of The Adriatic Port Of Fiume (now Rieka, Croatia) Was Hotly Disputed. Enter â??Pirate Kingâ? Gabriele Dâ??Annunzio, An Italian Poet Who Stormed The City With 3,000 Italian Nationalists. Dâ??Annunzio Declared Fiume A Free Republic And Himself Commander. He Envisioned A Utopian City-state, But Fiume Quickly Became A Surreal Center Of Violence, Looting, And Decadence, With Shades Of The Fascist Movement To Come. Acclaimed Comics Artist David B. Uses This Real Event As A Backdrop And Seamlessly Weaves History, Hysteria, And Highly Stylized Art Into The Tragic Love Story Of A Beautiful Torch Singer And A Young Soldier Haunted By The Horrors Of Trench Warfare.
