The Queen's Gambit - Walter Tevis

The Queen's Gambit

In this cult classic, Tevis does for chess what he did for pool in his bestselling novel "The Hustler"--he turns it into the most exciting game in the world. Engaging and fast-paced, "The Queen's Gambit" speeds to a conclusion as elegant and satisfying as a mate in four.
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Engaging and fast-paced, this gripping coming-of-age novel of chess, feminism, and addiction speeds to a conclusion as elegant and satisfying as a mate in four. Now a highly acclaimed, award-winning Netflix series.

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 Beth 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.
