Black Rose and African Violets
Black Rose and African Violets is a true story portrayed through the eyes of a child growing up in post-war Britain.

Those with direct recollections of the painful events of the Second World War are no longer with us. It is, therefore, all the more important that such memories are preserved if we are to learn the hard lessons from the past.

Towards the end of his life, while living and practising as an analyst in the United States, Wittels wrote a two-hundred-page memoir of his early life and career in Vienna. The typescript memoirs, held in the archives of the Abraham Brill Library, New York, are published here for the first time, accompanied by a range of little-known illustrations. Incomplete in places, they have been deftly edited, contextualised and introduced by Edward Timms, whose many valuable...
