APerhaps I shouldn't even waste time criticizing the notoriously refuted purveyors of Fischer falsehoods such as Rene Chun… for their storytelling is fictitious to such extremes, that anyone with a brain can see through it as a load of ahistorical garbage.
Chun creates a whole fake history of Fischer and claims Fischer “moved to California” in 1968.
Fischer is reported to have spent extended time with the woman who hosted an open house to chess players…
Bobby Fischer's chess mentor dies
Los Angeles (AP) — Lina Grumette, 80, the “chess mother” to the enigmatic Bobby Fischer when he prepared for his 1972 world championship, has died.
Grumette, who kept Fischer, then the “enfant terrible” of international chess, at her home for months at a time as he prepared for the championship, died Thursday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center of complications of lung cancer. One of the best women chess players of the 1940s, she encouraged Fischer to seek the championship from Soviet grandmaster Boris Spassky and accompanied him to Iceland for the match. It was there he became the only American to win a world chess title.
Fischer, now a recluse believed to be living in Southern California, has refused to play in public since. For many years, Grumette ran a club in her home called The Chess Set. It became a gathering place for tournament players and other chess celebrities. For several years she also hosted the largest Memorial Day chess tournament on the West Coast. She is survived by a son, a daughter and a grandson. A funeral will be held tomorrow.

But Fischer did not “move to” California in a permanent residence, until 1972 when Fischer “moved to” the Worldwide Church of God/Ambassador College Campus apartments. 1972.
An “Open House” for Chess Players, is not a “permanent residence.” And even if he had, living inside a busy “Open House” is nothing short of insanity on Chun's part for calling it “Wilderness Years” unless referring to the high trafficked, chaos of socializing and interactions with other chess players and all around — good mental outlook.
In 1968… Fischer was all over the place, geographically… according to the defective reporting of Rene Chun, 1968 was the beginning of Fischer's “Wilderness Years”.
Review the facts.
Does it look like “Wilderness 1968” to any of you?

Besides the confirmation from Grummette that Fischer was not a resident in her home, but a guest,
International Grand Master Isaac Kashdan confirms in December 1972 of Bobby Fischer's recent 1972 transfer of residency to the Los Angeles area.
- Numerous reports from Reykjavik referred to Bobby still as a “29-year-old chess wizard from Brooklyn” (New York) in 1972.
- Brad Darrach's 1974 article, (albeit he was sued by Bobby Fischer for lack of integrity in journalism/breech of contract) — states that Bobby moved to California in 1972, the Ambassador College/WCG complex apartments.
- CBS 60 Minutes documentary on Fischer in the coming match, aired April 1972, showed Bobby Fischer staying in an apartment near the Catskill Mountains, NY.
- Alas, Kashdan verifies in December 1972, as well…
Rene Chun published a fake biography. Bobby Fischer did NOT move to California in 1968. Nor was that any beginning of “wilderness years” as alleged and shame on The Guardian for re-publishing Fraudster Chun's fake fairy tale biography… based entirely on the life of God only knows who… because it certainly wasn't Bobby Fischer's life Chun describes.

Rene Chun's Falsehood: Fischer's Income
vs.
“New Wealth Expected to Foster Big Shift in Fischer's Life‐Style,” September 11, 1972
The photocopy of Fischer's Donation receipt located in his interview with Ambassador Report, 1977. In the year 1970 alone, Fischer donated $4360.00 to the Armstrong organization as part of the mandatory 10% “first tithe”. (Note: Address on Donation Receipts in 1972 from Worldwide Church of God/Ambassador College, addressed to Bobby Fischer, with state of New York as residency.)
Which incidentally, much of the Life Brad Darrach report seems an embellished breech of confidentiality and defamation…
Which explains why Bobby Fischer later sued Brad Darrach,

Fischer's Lawsuit Is Dismissed
Los Angeles (AP)—The $5 million invasion of privacy lawsuit by Bobby Fischer, chess champion, against an author and publisher has been dismissed by Judge Matt Byrne, of the United States District Court.
Fischer, who acted as his own attorney, accused Brad Darrach, of Time-Life International and Stein and Day Publishers, Inc., of breaking written and oral promises not to disclose details of the former world chess champion's private life.
“I'll not pay a penny of federal income taxes until I get justice in this case,”said Fischer after Byrne acted Thursday. Earlier, Byrne said Fischer had shown “almost intentional disregard for rules of discovery” in pretrial proceedings. Darrach wrote the book, “Bobby Fischer versus the Rest of the World.”
