Description
Since the phenomenal success of The Queen’s Gambit on Netflix, tens of thousands of new players have taken up chess. This is a ‘gateway book’ for people who have never read a chess book before: an easy-reading true story about struggles with mental health and the power of chess, but also an engaging way to learn how chessplayers really think.
Rosie Irwin never considered playing chess until she saw The Queen’s Gambit and was inspired to take up the game, identifying with the lead character’s emotional struggles.
Jonathan Arnott has decades of teaching and chess coaching experience. He has captained the Yorkshire county side, represented White Rose in the European Club Cup and captained Chessable White Rose to victory in the inaugural online Four Nations Chess League.
