The Sicilian Kan is one of the most flexible and easy-to-play
variations of the entire Sicilian complex. In contrast to opening
monsters such as the infamous Dragon and Najdorf Variations, Black
players are not forced to memorize massive chunks of opening
theory. Success in the Sicilian Kan is more dependent on
understanding certain principles and a system of development.
Another point in its favor is that even more experienced White
players are often flummoxed by Blacks elastic approach. Recently
the Kan has received a seal of approval from the highest places,
with both Kasparov and Kramnik employing it in the last couple of
years.
In this book, Grandmaster John Emms considers both the popular main
lines and the tricky sidelines of the Sicilian Kan. Using
illustrative games, Emms guides the reader through the positional
and tactical intricacies of this modern opening.
