Synopsis "Chess Story (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition) (in English)"

Stefan Zweig's posthumously published Chess Story is the tale of a legendary chess match played on an ocean liner leaving Nazi-occupied Europe. The world champion and a man who attained mastery of chess during a harrowing ordeal are locked in a battle that becomes far more than merely a game. Gripping and visceral, this unforgettable novella powerfully renders a psychological condition nearly impossible to convey in words. Ulrich Baer's lively new translation beautifully captures Zweig's nuanced mix of introspection and suspense. Includes "My Last Conversations with Stefan Zweig" by Ernst Feder and a detailed biographical timeline.

View Author's Page
(Viena, 1881 – Petrópolis, Brasil, 1942) escritor muy popular, tanto en su faceta de ensayista y biógrafo como en la de novelista, fue uno de los escritores más polifacéticos de la primera mitad del siglo XX. Su capacidad narrativa, la pericia y la delicadeza en la descripción de los sentimientos y la elegancia de su estilo lo convierten en un narrador fascinante. Se relacionó con los grandes autores de su tiempo: Rilke, Joseph Roth, Thomas Mann, H. G. Wells, Tagore, entre otros. Tras algunas décadas en las que sus obras se vieron inexplicablemente ignoradas, Zweig ha sido recuperado y actualmente goza del prestigio y la popularidad que por justicia literaria le correspondía.
