If I should name three favourite chess books it would be [...] The third book is Bronstein’s opus on Zurich 1953.
>But for you, what book has given you the most? Without doubt Zurich 53 by Bronstein! That’s a totally unique book. Not only are the ideas described with words and not simply variations, but it was also unprecedented for a player at his level, number 2 or 3 in the world, to reveal his ideas like that, with great sincerity. It’s a deep and honest book.
The Zurich International Tournament 1953 was the second Candidates’ Tournament of the World Chess Federation FIDE and took place from 29 August to 24 October in Zurich and Neuhausen as a double round-robin tournament with fifteen participants.
