Book Bites are quick looks at a book from our Guest Host readers. Try a new book this week! And this week our Guest Host is admiring the book , by Sasha Chapin. "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." our newsletter, our social media, and our podcasts to stay up to date on all kinds of great stuff!
