I arrived in Poland today, my first time ever visiting the land my maternal great-grandparents left for the U.S. 100 years ago. Really looking forward to the Rubinstein Memorial starting on Saturday!

Stephen Fry: „…Kasparov hunches himself over the game, in a brooding, minatory and virile manner that is worth at least three extra pawns.” https://t.co/zWV41CdoV8 pic.twitter.com/eWCvOjYlnB
