Overview: “A smart, funny, and slyly profound book about the dark ecstasies of obsessive love. Sasha Chapin is a gentlemanly Gonzo, a dirty Bond, and he writes like a dream.”
–Claudia Dey, author of Heartbreaker
Sasha Chapin is a victim of chess. Like countless amateurs before him–Albert Einstein, Humphrey Bogart, Marcel Duchamp–the game has consumed his life and his mind. First captivated by it as a member of his high school chess club, his passion was rekindled during an accidental encounter with chess hustlers on the streets of Kathmandu. In its aftermath, he forgot how to care about anything else. He played at all hours, for weeks at a time. Like a spurned lover, he tried to move on, but he found the game more seductive the more he resisted it.
And so, he thought, if he can’t defeat his obsession, he had to succumb to it.
