She writes in Chess Monthly about Hastings and pjnnjd a piece about Alikhinj. Her latest work "A Shrimp Learns to Whistle" (Elephant Publishing, 230pp £7.99). She deals with her attempted emigration to St Petersburg and the book, a history of chess in the USSR, that she attempted to write. Sarah takes on chess, music, the untamed chaos of modern day Russia, sport, politics, sex and of course, the Beatles in the USSR. A pleasant mix of a book from a good journalist.
