Perpetual Chess is back with another book review, discussing GM Jan Timman’s excellent book, The Longest Game. It is part game analysis and part historic guide to GM Garry Kasparov and GM Anatoly Karpov’s epic rivalry. While the 2023 World Championship looks unlikely to feature the #1 player, from 1984 to 1990 chess fans were lucky enough to see the clear #1 and the clear #2 lock horns in 6 different World Championship matches! These battles resulted in some timeless, tense chess games, and plenty of far-fetched but true stories related to the behind the scenes machinations of the matches. Joining me to discuss it all, is Marko Bulatovic, who selected this book because he is both a chess and history aficionado. Please read on for timestamps of topics discussed. 0:00- Background on my co-host, Marko Bulatovic and why he chose the book The Longest Game 14:00- Does the +2 overall record of Kasparov in the 6 World Championship matches misrepresent how close the matches were? 17:00- Perpetual Chess is brought to you in part by Aimchess.com.
