BIOGRAPHY

Kalu Singh (full name Kalu Iqbal Singh Nannar) was born in India and came to England as a child. His fitful studies at college included chemical physics, philosophy and English. He is a trained teacher but works as a civil servant and as an accredited counsellor in private practice. 

I am a Friend of the Freud Museum , London . I am also a personal friend of the Museum’s Education Director Mr Ward, a fine teacher and a man of great intellectual grace.

He kindly invited me to write two of the books in the Ideas in Psychoanalysis that he edited for Icon , UK .  His exemplary receptivity has prompted me to submit both brief Opinion & Commentary  pieces for the Freud Today section of the Museum Website:  and also ideas for their Public Conference Programme

UNPUBLISHED BUT AVAILABLE

1 :  DARING TO DRAW A TENSION
In Praise of Contemporary American Animation
Family Guy, American Dad and Drawn Together

2 :  A NEW PROTOCOL FOR A PARALLEL TEXT OF DANTE'S   INFERNO

This enables the reader with no Italian to make a beginning at Dante in the original.

Both Prof Barbara Reynolds, the great translator of Dante, & the Cultural Attache at the Italian Institute, London,  were impressed.

But, alas, I couldn't get a publisher.
