I'm looking for some good books where chess plays a major part in the story. Some I've read already are:
"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass" by Lewis Carroll, Alice goes through the looking glass and becomes a pawn in a chess game,
"The Eight" by Katherine Neville, where the characters are sent on an Indiana Jones-style hunt for a lost jeweled chess set,
and
"The Flanders Panel" by Arturo Perez-Reverte, a murder mystery where the characters are researching a famous painting of a chess game.
Can you suggest any others?

I have read a lot of literature from the 19th century and virtually all of it, no matter the nationality, is full of digressions as far as its prose is concerned. However, Hugo in Les Miserables seems to do it excessively. Not only do we get a fifty page account of the sunken road in the Battle of Waterloo, a rebellion in adjacent Spain that the French were interested in, a chapter detailing the house Jean Valjean and Cossette lived in when they were running away from the police, but now we need to know every aspect of the history of a specific convent in numerous chapters. What is the purpose of all of this? Hugo even tells the reader to pardon his digressions which is another digression.
