Xake Mate is a short novel by Alberto Ladrón Arana, winner of the Agustín Zubikarai award. The story takes us to post-World War II Germany, where a lonely boy, who lost a leg in the war and moves in a wheelchair, finds refuge in chess. Through chess, he not only spends time, but also learns to understand the world and to fight. The plot is well structured and focuses on penicillin smuggling in the post-war period, with the presence of an angelic girl named Angela.
