Thank you for your interest!
I bet chess is a discipline that hides a lot of mistery in it, and that makes it prone to fantasizing. Last year I read a collection of all of Yasunari Kawabata's short stories. I really like his style, non-conclusive, very open and many times ambiguous. I thought I would give it a try in this 'very short' entry - too short to be a story. Anyway, all I wanted was to briefly try his style. I really enjoyed it, and I'm happy you also did.
