A Penguin Classics Hardcover
A group of passengers on a cruise ship challenge the world chess champion to a match. At first, they crumble, until they are helped by whispered advice from a stranger in the crowd— a man who will risk everything to win. Stefan Zweig’ s acclaimed novella Chess is a disturbing, intensely dramatic depiction of obsession and the price of the past.
