Coltart wrote about her clinical work with honesty and brilliance. She wrote with a spoken flair of expression and kept technical language to a minimum. [...] Coltart tells us not to be afraid to make the psychoanalytic writing personal and readable. When one looks at the explosion of psychoanalytic journals and digital outlets, this writing style is on the ascent and owes much to Coltart. How such an independent psychoanalyst and creative writer arose from a rather stiff British Psychoanalytic Society is a mystery. But she might retort, that is why we love psychoanalysis because even if we are slouching towards our own personal Bethlehems we are moving closer to the heart of thinking the unthinkable.
