Sosonko’s Corner
Is there anything besides chess? In this edition of Sosonko’s Corner you may not find the answer to that question! It is dedicated to chess addict Vasily Ivanchuk’s newest opening exploits. What you may find out is how the Ukrainian star saddles a knight.

Book Reviews
Nobody expects it, although regular readers of Glenn Flear’s column might: The Spanish Inquisition! Our reviewer specializes in the Ruy Lopez, which should entitle him to pass judgment on Sahovski Informator’s Fifth Edition of Encyclopedia C (1.e4 e6 and 1.e4 e5), as well as Andrew Greet’s ‘Play the Ruy Lopez’ (Everyman) and Johnsen/Johannessen’s ‘The Ruy Lopez: A Guide for Black’ (Gambit). Also in this issue: the quite original ‘The Chigorin Defence According to Morozevich’ written by Moro himself and Vladimir Barsky for New In Chess, as well as Karpov’s and Podgaets’s second Caro-Kann book, on the Panov Attack this time.
