Readout: A Chess Set for the Bride
from ARE WE EUROPE Hosted by Fatima Hudoon, Priyanka Shankar
From the 1960s to the 1990s, four Georgian women ruled the world stage—also including Nana Alexandria and Nana Ioseliani. Dubbed druzhina—a combat-unit—by commentators, they inspired a mushrooming of chess schools up and down the country. From our latest print magazine, this story explores the history of Georgian women chess players and their impact on the game. Produced and edited by Andrei Popoviciu and Priyanka Shankar
