I read your wonderful review in Baffler. Lying Fallow has been one of my mantras as well as Good Enough Mother since I read Winnicott and Kahn in the 60s. I did not know about Kahn's sad demise. Recently discovered, I regularly binge on Adam Phillips's YouTube performances, waiting eagerly for the end of the presentation or roundtable discussion for the Q&A sessions; his replies are kind, humorous and sometime cutting. Phillips makes me think of Lacan, in the way he loops and curls in such a byzantine manner that I have to let go and just let the words wash over me. I too wonder where he puts his wickedness.
