The protagonist, Wang Yisheng, undergoes a gradual transformation from “”chess fool”” to “”chess master”” – from an alienated young man obsessed with the material needs of life to a spiritually enlightened transmitter of the Chinese tradition.

This is an interesting book and gives great insight into life in China at that time. I read this book in Chinese and English and the English version is pretty good.
