Natan Sharansky has always been a strong chessplayer, and even beat me in a simul! He credits mental chess with helping him get through his imprisonment for nine years in a Siberian prison. https://t.co/Gvf1m91o0S — PolitiTweet.org

Blindfold chess in prison to overcome Covid restrictions on board games. The long line of famous imprisoned chessplayers includes mental chess and making pieces out of stale bread! https://t.co/gfqJZJvMJ3 — PolitiTweet.org

In many ways the opposite, as much as I love Zweig. His "Chess Story" and Nabokov's "The Defense" did significant harm to the reputation of chessplayers as mentally fragile or damaged. — PolitiTweet.org
