    Publisher: Andrey ElkovAuthor(s): LinderLanguage: RussianFormat: UsualPages: 336Binding: HardDate: 2020Dear reader! In your hands is a collection of the most precious and memorable works of the author - both written long ago, and lying for several decades in the archive, and born in recent years. My pen tests in various literary genres, including poetry, always surprised and pleased my father, the chess historian Isaac Linder. A strict fan of chess "classicism" and historical realism, he boldly co-authored a freethinker and, as critics from his beloved 19th century would say, a Greyhound painter. And I must say, the "docking" was successful. I took some pleasure in writing historical stories, and he began to indulge in elegant artistic digressions. For more than a quarter of a century, we have perfectly understood and complemented each other… This book is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the passionate propagandist of chess culture, chess encyclopedist, writer and sage Isaac Maxovich Linder, it is a thank you and a bow to his bright memory. Among its heroes are people who, by the will of fate, linked their lives with Chess. Photos of Boris Dolmatovsky, Alexander Kantorovich, Nikolai Zhuravk, from the archives of the state security service, Irina Alatortseva, Lyudmila Belavenets, Sergey Voronkov, Andrey Yelkov, Isaak and Vladimir Linder.
