Milner's final text, Bothered by Alligators, came about when, in
her nineties, she unexpectedly came across a diary she had kept
during the early years of her son's life, recording his
conversations and play between the ages of two and nine. With it
was a storybook written and illustrated by him when he was about
seven years old. Whilst working on the material, Milner gradually
realised that both diary and storybook were provoking questions she
realised had scarcely been asked, let alone answered in her own
analysis. Through her memories, her notebooks and by interpreting
her own previously discarded drawings and paintings, she reaches a
point of awareness that they were depicting things she did not know
in herself, addressing her relationships not only with her son but
also with her husband, her father, and in particular, her mother.
Like many of Milner's earlier books there is a deeply personal
quality to Bothered by Alligators, but it is a quality that
transcends the personal and reveals insights and conclusions that
will be both interesting and useful to clinicians; and fascinating
to readers from a psychological, a literary, an artistic or an
educational background, and, in particular, those with an interest
in psychoanalysis and autobiography and in Milner's work.
