| 810609: "Q: How do you manage to work as a Chairman of the Junior Committee and show good results in practical play at the same time? A: I have very professional and efficient assistants and perhaps they even work better without me." http://www.ugra-chess.ru/eng/interv...
I canīt help myself, I just must love every interview with Bareev... I doubt there is another chessplayer with this great sense of humour. |

| Cactus: That is a good interveiw! <cotdt> What is the book about? As well, Bareev has played the Smyslov variation of the Caro-Kann three times, always against Leko. Is there any reason for this, or is it just a coincidence? |

| Karpova: Evgeny Bareev and Ilya Levitov won the 2008 Book of the Year Award from the English Chess Federation for <From London to Elista>: http://www.bcf.org.uk/events/bcfawa... <The judges this year had no difficulty choosing a book which gives a remarkable inside view of match play chess at the highest level.> <Well written and translated the quality of the book resides in the open and frank way Bareev answers the questions. Amongst the many subjects discussed (and we can only list a few here) are stress, opening preparation, team working, relations with Kramnik, the opponents, fatigue and exhaustion of players and seconds. But above all the narrative captures very well the psychological issues behind the drama of the matches. When will Kasparovs fight back take place? How to keep an ailing Kramnik going when behind in his match with Leko? And last but not least can Kramnik keep his composure after being defaulted a game against Topalov?London to Elista gives a unique insight into world championship chess. Without doubt this is one of the most original and interesting books to have won the Book of the Year award. Ray Edwards Julian Farrand David Friedgood 1st October 2008> |

| patzer of patzers: I think Bareev was also able to predict the outcome of Game 8 of the 2008 Anand-Kramnik WCC by the color of Anand's sweater. :O |

| bmulligan: You can't really compare it with books written before the computer age, but Is "From London to Elista" the best WCC book ever written? |
