A partial history of lost causes

DuBois, Jennifer 1983- (Author). Mazur, Kathe. (Added Author). Hoye, Stephen. (Added Author).

Summary: A long-lost letter links two disparate characters, each searching for meaning against seemingly insurmountable odds. One is a Russian world chess champion who has turned to dissident politics. The other is an American woman who finds a copy of the letter her late father had written to the young chess champion, to which he'd never received adequate response.
