I thought about what Finegold had said at the end of our first lesson. After we’d gone through a few of my games, he had nonchalantly asked me whether I’d like to know the secret of chess. “Um, sure,” I said. “Okay, I’ll tell you. But you’re not going to believe me,” he said. “And maybe you never will.” This was correct. I had no idea what to make of the secret of chess. And I definitely didn’t believe it. Only later, much later, when I was walking on a beach in California, did his words really strike me with their full force. |
