20 amusing tasks with surprising solutions from DIE ZEIT

With a foreword by Herbert Bastian, President of the German Chess Federation.

There is undoubtedly no other German grandmaster who has brought chess as close to us as Helmut Pfleger. Whether on television or in the educational channel of the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation and not least in DIE ZEIT, the Munich doctor is a tireless promoter of the royal game. Above all, his column in the weekly newspaper DIE ZEIT - the first article appeared in 1982 - has long been considered the classic among German chess columns. With often astonishing stories, the now 72-year-old regularly knows how to captivate ordinary chess fans. Once ambition has been awakened, solving chess problems is particularly enjoyable.

With ZEIT-SCHACHWUNDER, another collection of 120 amusing tasks with astonishing solutions from the years 2009 to 2015 is now being published.
