توضیحات
Eight year-old 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.

The chess was more emotive than Beth Harmon… the show is better
February 5th 2025
This book is so intense and gripping that I just couldn't put it down. I love the way this book has been written. Throughout the whole entire book, you can really feel the emotions of each character and the events they all participate in. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes chess. Tevis uses the chess terminology and his storytelling so well that it makes you feel like playing the game itself.
