|
This title is contemporarily sold out. Again expected in May-June 2024. The second of a four-volume series on Viktor Korchnoi. The book presents 140 deeply annotated games and fragments from 1969 to the Candidate's match against Huebner, played at the turn of 1980/1981. The book also provides biographical information and is accompanied by many photographs, including those from the family archive. Viktor Lvovich Korchnoi (1931-2016), nicknamed Viktor the Terrible for his uncompromising style, was a giant of the chess world with a 70-year career and more than 5,000 recorded games. He played two World Championship matches, was a 10-time World Championship Candidate, a four-time Soviet champion, and in 2006 became the World Senior Chess Champion. His life and chess career is very colorful - he survived the Leningrad siege as a child, was a top player in the world for decades, emigrated at the age of 45 and has lived in Switzerland since 1978.
