Modern Benoni according to Boleslawski by I. Gawle and J. Moras is a Polish-language chess book on one of the most distinctive defences against 1.d4. It presents the Modern Benoni through Boleslawski’s ideas and highlights the opening’s asymmetrical pawn structure, which is central to its dynamic character.
What this book covers
The book examines a defence whose roots lie in the Indian Defence. In practical opening play, it is still sometimes associated with that family, but it has its own identity and a separate positional structure. Today, the terms Benoni Defence and Modern Benoni are used for this line, with the Modern Benoni being the specific focus here.
This is a useful choice for players who want to understand the ideas behind the opening rather than simply memorising moves. It can support self-study and help when building a Black repertoire.
