ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
The Queen’s Gambit by Walter Tevis follows the life of Elizabeth Harmon, an orphaned girl who discovers an extraordinary talent for chess. The story explores her journey from a troubled childhood to becoming a rising star in the world of competitive chess. Beth's passion for the game provides an escape from her personal struggles, but also fuels her obsessive tendencies and dependence on tranquilizers. The novel examines her relationships with mentors and friends, and her battles with addiction and the challenges of a male-dominated field. It also highlights themes of self-discovery, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence in the face of adversity, as Beth confronts her inner demons and external obstacles to realize her potential.
