Family life

For an 85-year-old man, Taimanov has an unusual family situation. He remarried late in life and became the father of twins at an advanced age.

"When children appear in the world everything else really does appear trifling," he said. And I must say to those who are about my age that I’ve never felt happier than I do now, when life is focussed on these wonderful creatures. Thank you, Nadya, for that!" On the fact that the age difference between his first son and the twins is 57 years – in essence, two generations – he says: "We have a very funny situation. Misha and Dima end up being the aunt and uncle of my granddaughter. And she’s 27."
