Gambit de dama

Gambit de dama

Tevis, Walter

Eight-year-old Beth Harmon has just arrived at the orphanage after losing her mother in a terrible accident. Retired and lost, she discovers that there are two things that give her some peace, the little green pills that give them peace of mind and the board game she plays with the institution's janitor, chess. It will soon become clear that she has a spectacular talent for this game, which over the years will lead her to compete against the greatest in the world. Exciting and moving, full of strength, struggle and empowerment, Lady Gambit catches you from the first page in a spiral of exciting games, physical and vital journeys and struggles not to get lost, which does not let you go for a moment, until to an end as elegant and vibrant as a mat in four movements.
