ABSTRACT

A recording of Freud was the high spot of this year’s annual general meeting of the Belsize Park Psychoanalytical Association. The gathering listened in dead silence, and you could cut the awe and reverence with a knife but, as the master spoke in German, nobody understood a word! They turned to an elderly German emigré and asked, ‘What does he say?’ He replied, ‘Freud says the most important thing is to keep a kosher house.’
