160 amusing tasks with surprising solutions

Of course, chess is not magic, but only Helmut Pfleger can seduce us to play chess with such cunning: 40 years of chess in ZEITmagazin with Helmut Pfleger

Helmut Pfleger is our chess magician. Every week he manages to present a new entertaining and exciting little story with a tricky chess problem in the ZEITmagazin. And many readers are the first to open his column out of curiosity, as Peer Steinbrück, former finance minister, freely admits. No one else can explain complex chess games so easily on the demonstration board, whether for many years on WDR in the legendary TV show SCHACH DER GROSSMEISTER, as the "Dream Team" together with Vlastimil Hort, or at his simultaneous events and numerous appearances in front of knowledgeable audiences.

This new collection of 160 chess problems, compiled from the years 2016 to 2022, is also presented with wit and sophistication. Of course, chess is not magic, but only Helmut Pfleger can seduce us to play chess with such cunning.

And at the same time, you will improve your chess skills in a playful way: We hope you enjoy reading and solving the exciting tasks!
