Very
rarely you get the chance to see and listen to the possibly best chess
player of all times for nearly 90 minutes – Kasparov the politician
was just as impressive to me as the chess player – in a positive
as in a less positive sense – I mean by that a certain "lack
of contact with reality" I thought to discern in some of his political
remarks. During this year’s literature celebrations in Cologne lit.COLOGNE
the presentation of his new book (sponsored by the Piper publishing house)
took place on (!) the Rhine in the evening of March 18th, 2007, Kasparov
presented it in detail (in English) – naturally much is about chess
in it. Afterwards he was interviewed by Klaus Bednorz on some current
developments in Russia.

On
board the literature ship MS RheinEnergie you could purchase
this work, now the "Master’s" nice autograph adorns
it.
By the way, the German edition has been published before the English
or the American one ...
