Superb, TIME OUT Gripping reading . . . Nabokov's The Defense and Zweig's The Royal Game are the classics. Now joining them is The Queen's Gambit, FINANCIAL TIMES The Queen's Gambit is sheer entertainment. It is a book I reread every few years - for the pure pleasure and skill of it Mesmerizing, NEWSWEEK Don't pick this up if you want a night's sleep, SCOTSMAN More exciting than any thriller I've seen lately; more than that, beautifully written What Walter Tevis did for pool in The Hustler, he does for chess in The Queen's Gambit, PLAYBOY A psychological thriller, NEW YORK TIMES Walter Tevis is famous for writing The Hustler and The Man Who Fell to Earth, but this is my favorite book of his. It is about a girl who, guided by her somewhat unreliable mother, becomes a child prodigy at chess. Even if you do not know how to play chess, it is a great thriller, Literary Hub Tevis was a great storyteller -- Lionel Shriver --Este texto se refiere a la edición paperback.. Walter Tevis was an American novelist and short story writer. Whilst a student at the University of Kentucky, Tevis worked in a pool hall and published a story about the game for an English class. He would later revisit his love for pool in the novels THE HUSTLER (1959) and THE COLOR OF MONEY (1984), both of which would be adapted into multiple award-winning films starring Paul Newman. Among his other works, THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH (1963) and MOCKINGBIRD (1980) are considered masterpieces of science fiction. Tevis died in 1984. --Este texto se refiere a la edición paperback.. ld orphan Beth Harmon is quiet, sullen, and by all appearances unremarkable. That is until she plays her first game of chess. Her senses grow sharper, her thinking clearer, and for the first time in her life she feels herself fully in control. By the age of sixteen, she’s competing for the U.S. Open championship. But as she hones her skills on the professional circuit, the stakes get higher, her isolation grows more frightening, and the thought of escape becomes all the more tempting. Engaging and fast-paced, The Queen’s Gambit speeds to a conclusion as elegant and satisfying as a mate in four. --Este texto se refiere a la edición kindle_edition ..
