Najdorf o Najdorfie - Liliana Najdorf

This Najdorf on Najdorf - Liliana Najdorf is a chess memoir that combines Liliana Najdorf’s personal recollections with the story of Mieczysław Najdorf, one of the most recognisable names in chess. Written by his daughter, it offers a more intimate view of a grandmaster’s life for readers who enjoy chess history and biographies.

What this memoir covers

Rather than reading like a dry sporting biography, this book presents Najdorf as both a chess player and a father. That is what gives it its appeal: it blends family memories with a portrait of a figure who left a lasting mark on the game.

The book will suit anyone interested in chess history, grandmaster biographies and personal family recollections. It is also a natural choice for collectors of chess literature and readers who want to study the life of a major chess name through a more personal lens.

What you’ll find inside

At the end of the memoir, Liliana Najdorf includes several chess games, adding a chess-focused conclusion to the narrative. If you are building a chess library, this memoir sits naturally alongside other titles on chess history.
