El libro de Ben Mezrich explora la controversia de ajedrez entre Carlsen y Niemann

Ben Mezrich ofrece nuevos detalles sobre la disputa entre Magnus Carlsen y Hans Niemann en su nuevo libro Checkmate. La obra se basa en entrevistas con los involucrados en el escándalo que sacudió al ajedrez moderno. Una versión de libro electrónico apareció en abril y el lanzamiento de la edición de tapa dura está programado para junio.

Mezrich describe a Niemann como un prodigio con rasgos complejos. Destaca la crianza solitaria del jugador y su creencia en su propio destino de grandeza. Mezrich también aborda la decisión de Carlsen de insinuar que hubo trampas tras una derrota en 2022 en San Luis, afirmando que el noruego actuó sin pruebas suficientes en aquel momento. Añade que Carlsen no ha cambiado su postura desde los eventos ocurridos hace cuatro años.
