The Soviet system would not be as meaningless as it really was if it had not provided such a "profitable" sport and recreation for itself as chess, not only by the Chess Federation, not only by the department in the USSR Sports Committee, but also close custody of the "armed detachment of the Communist Party" - the KGB. Due to the secret nature of the work of the KGB, his work with respect to the leading Soviet chess players is described little and, most importantly, one-sidedly, mainly, chess players, who had displeasure in their professional life faced with the "care" of the KGB. Now we have a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the work of the KGB "on the chess front" from inside this organization. The book with the eloquent title "The KGB plays chess" was written by several authors: V.K.Popov, a former employee of the KGB of the USSR; SOUTH. Felshtinsky - Doctor of Historical Sciences, author of journalistic publications; B.F. Gulko - international grandmaster, professional chess player, champion of the USSR in 1977; VL Korchny is the four-time champion of the Soviet Union in chess, the two-time winner of interzonal tournaments, the five-time champion of Europe.

The plot of this book & ndash; not just a romantic fiction of the author, but also an attempt at a historical study of one of the most delightful hoaxes of the Enlightenment, so rich in all sorts of inventions. 250 years ago, the outstanding inventor Wolfgang von Kempelen designed a mechanical chess player, the great-great-grandfather of modern chess computers. The Kempelen submachine gun toured extensively throughout Europe from Vienna to Paris and London, beating up nobles and even crowned heads - ndash; Frederick the Great and Napoleon. Attempts to penetrate the automaton’s secret have been made repeatedly, often by the most insidious methods that endangered the life of Kempelen and his companions ... Viktor L. Henkin (1923-2010), a chess master, a journalist and a writer, worked on a novel for about a quarter of a century, trying to recreate as precisely as possible the atmosphere of a distant 18th century. Striving for perfection, he rewrote many times and rewrote ready-made chapters and did not manage to finish his novel. The work was completed by his wife, Tatyana Gubarkova, with whom Victor Khenkin always shared his creative ideas, and discussed in detail the plot lines. For lovers of history, chess and adventure literature.
