A Bestseller in Italy, "Prince of the Clouds" is a compelling tale that blends romance and military strategy, often to delightful, sometimes comic effect. Military scholar Carlo Terzo is exiled to Palermo, Sicily, in the wake of World War II. While caring for his ailing wife, he begins to tutor Salvatore Dragonara, a young Communist and poet, and Fiore, an aristocrat and daughter of the overprotective Duchess Mastema. When the unlikely pair fall for each other, they test Terzo's theory that the the principles of war can be applied to the battles of love.
