Dámský gambit - CDmp3 (Čte Jana Plodková)

It's time for a woman to win the US Chess Championship. For her to win IT. They say this game isn't for girls. But a janitor from the orphanage, where the American state heavily sedated her to keep her from standing out, initiated her into it. Beth Harmon, the prodigy from Kentucky, is an intuitive chess player and can crush many opponents before it even gets to the endgame. She wins her first tournament – however, competitive chess and real life are elsewhere. When the girl on the brink of puberty finally achieves a better environment and a remarkably neglected foster mother, she rises higher on the American ranking, even though she has long lacked a practice chessboard and only imagines the moves mentally. Great preparation, but she also needs to learn to lose and get along with a society that is not exactly inclined towards emancipation on the brink of the 60s. Is Beth not good enough for him? Or is it happening because she is the best? And on top of all those male oddballs consumed by chess passion, she must also defeat a rival who crosses her plans... The source material for the seven-part Netflix miniseries. The most popular novel of the dark horse of American fantasy continues to captivate all generations regardless of their chess knowledge even after years. The art of making the right move is useful every day. Recording length: 11 hours 54 minutes.
