Sort:

the book intermezzo by sally rooney includes a professional chess player-it is very graphic but is incredibly well written, the chess only plays a small part having read the first 7 chapters

it is a multi-million selling best seller

But where it does come into play, it’s very credible. Ivan’s chess thoughts are actually realistic. Either Rooney did her research very well or she is a chess player herself.
