A new book by Anatoly Aramisova is unique in its kind. It contains the best stories and novels of the author, devoted to the art of chess. Chess, the game of millions, intellectual battle enemies are presented in the most unexpected ways. The usual game on the train (short story "The Hitcher") enters into a confrontation of experience and youth, honor and meanness, kindness and greed. Mystical secrets shrouded match at the World Championship in the story "The Mystery of confession." The arrogance of the young players just does not end tragically in the story titled "Voyage, Voyage". Lyrical and brutal at the same time a love story awaits readers in "The Grand Master". The plot of "10 francs" tells the story of a Parisian clochard and countries will take the chess player. The story "The game against life" can not touch the hearts of true fans of this ancient game. It is told as an outstanding chess talent can be ruined by the most banal way. Perhaps the pinnacle of the book, her pointe shoes, (pointe) as the French say, is the story of "Voyager". On a huge cruise ship to be held Chess Championship 2019 worldwide. But measured narrative move violated the arrival of the ship group of mysterious strangers, among which, as it turns out, are the best players of the last century.

Mystic, love is real and fake, intrigue, crime due to the huge amount of money, philosophical implications of such an unusual event - all this will be a reader on the pages of the story "Voyager".
