Maurensig, Paolo The Luneburg Variation
Henry Holt & Company November 1, 199 0-8050-6028-6 / 9780805060287 Paperback Near Fine
No one has rendered more vivid the classic metaphor of war as a game of che ss than Maurensig in this suspenseful first novel, published in Italy in 19 93 and appearing here in a highly readable translation. The tale of former Jewish concentration camp inmate Tabori and Nazi nemesis Frisch is brought to sinister life in the tradition of mystery masters Paul Auster and Ruth R endell, e.g., events occur in random order, as pieces of a puzzle for the r eader to solve. The story portrays periods in the lives of the two professi onal competitors, who eventually meet in a brutal psychological endgame. Th e climax reveals the stakes of their tortuous tournament as the very privil ege of remaining alive. Chess fans will enjoy this thriller, and it may pro d checkers aficionados into taking the next step.
