In the first of these, the author, using a peculiar trick, unites in a conversation and debate about the art of chess of outstanding chess players of different eras and worldviews. The patroness of chess, Kaissa, was chosen as the “mistress” of this representative symposium, which gives the narrative relaxation and freedom of convention.
