Brian Stoppard is blessed with prodigious natural talents. Howard Cohen, less so. Starting in middle school in New York, Howard watches Brian effortlessly win at everything he tries: He's a natural chess champion, a perfect athlete, a brilliant student. As the two move through life as friends and competitors, Brian's easy success is a constant source of envy, awe, and inspiration for the ambitious but less-gifted Howard.Told with great humor and style, The Game Player is a story of those born to greatness and those who must strive for it.This ebook features a new illustrated biography of Rafael Yglesias, including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author's personal collection.
