By Brett Kahr<\/strong> (UK)<\/p>\n

\"kahrcover0216www\"<\/a>On February 20, 2016, Karnac Books of London took great pleasure in publishing the latest work from Professor Brett Kahr, entitled Tea with Winnicott<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In a tour de force<\/em>, Professor Brett Kahr, the distinguished clinician and historian, has resurrected Donald Winnicott from the dead and has invited him for a memorable cup of tea at 87 Chester Square \u2013 Winnicott\u2019s London residence \u2013 where the two men discuss Winnicott\u2019s life and work in compelling detail.<\/p>\n

With original drawings by Alison Bechdel, best-selling author and illustrator of Fun Home<\/em><\/strong> and Are You My Mother?<\/em><\/strong>, this \u201cposthumous interview\u201d will be the perfect guide for students and the ideal gift for colleagues.<\/p>\n

Reviews:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cA scintillating blend of history, biography, journalism, theatre, juicy trivia, and theoretical explication, Brett Kahr\u2019s book-length \u201cinterview\u201d with Winnicott is the best gift a reader of psychoanalysis can receive. As a writer, I experienced admiration and envy. As a reader, I experienced pleasure and gratitude. Seamlessly identifying with Kahr, I felt that I had met Winnicott in person myself. What a rare treat indeed!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2013 Professor Salman Akhtar, Training and Supervising Analyst,
\nPsychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother Brett Kahr tour de force<\/em>! Indefatigable historical skills, playful popularizing genius, and a deep love and knowledge of Winnicott underpin this amusing and informative imaginary conversation with his hero and posthumous friend. A rare psychoanalytic treat: fun, readable, intellectually robust, gossip-busting, and authentic. Winnicott would be delighted.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2013 Professor Jeremy Holmes, Professor of Psychotherapy, University of Exeter<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a child, I often witnessed Winnicott coming to tea with my parents. With the very same playfulness and artfulness that is Winnicott\u2019s legacy, Brett Kahr has captured the sparkle, mischief, and magic that Winnicott embodied in person. Never gossipy, but informative and quirky, often hilarious, this book provides an evocation of the authentic Winnicott. A crafty guide to the history of British psychoanalysis.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2013 Oliver James, PhD, psychologist and author of Britain on the Couch<\/em>, They F*** You Up:
\nHow to Survive Family Life<\/em>, Affluenza<\/em>, and Love Bombing<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cBrett Kahr brings his deep scholarship to this engaging and imaginative homage to Winnicott. The great theorist, empathic doctor, and proponent of play and creativity could have no better tribute. In Tea with Winnicott<\/em>, Professor Kahr has loosened his tie and has let the world see his humor, his wisdom, and his humanity. This is a treat of a read.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dr. Susie Orbach, psychoanalyst and author of
\nFat is a Feminist Issue<\/em>, The Impossibility of Sex<\/em>, and Bodies<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat a joy of a book! Brett Kahr is a most unique writer. I know of few, if any, colleagues, who have the capacity to be so creative, so scholarly, and so playful. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Winnicott on a number of occasions in the 1960s, and I certainly recognize the man that Kahr has brought back to life in this instructive and entertaining cup of tea! This book will be essential reading not only for newcomers to Winnicott, but for experienced practitioners too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2013 Dr. Estela V. Welldon, Emeritus Consultant Psychiatrist in Psychotherapy,
\nTavistock and Portman N.H.S. Trust, London<\/p>\n
