A Letter From Fischer

Kingpin is not to be trifled with, getting no less than three blurbs from Fry.

Anyway, this letter from Bobby Fischer probably isn't any more strictly authentic than The Hitler Diaries, but contains the truth of all great art.

The late Tony Miles (mentioned in the letter), was one of the coolest chessplayers ever. Apart from writing this succinct book review, he was famous for beating Karpov (then near the peak of his powers) with a completely bogus coffeehouse opening.

I, too, sympathize with all the ordinary Americans whose brains are being sifted by the U.S. Government.
