The basis of his deserved reputation as a biographer in world literature lies in this feature, that is, being a very master psychologist as well as being a writer. Chess is a story in which Zweig fully puts his psychological knowledge into play, and the main characters of this story are completely displayed in the way the author handles the people he deals with in his biographies. Zweig was living in Brazil, where he emigrated with his wife Lotte Zweig, when he wrote Chess, one of the few prose texts he completed just before his death. In Chess, he chose a cruise ship going from New York to Buenos Aires as the scene of the incident. Three people meet on this ship completely by chance: the new world chess champion Mirko Czentovic, the narrator, an ordinary chess player, and Dr. who was once a very master chess player but has been away from chess for a long time. B. are the actors of the story.
