enthrallment

Are art critics people, prone to the familiar flurries of aversion and enthrallment?

It isn’t just Mary’s enthrallment to Vogel that “The Foundling” probes so well, but the way someone like Vogel can not only thrive under patriarchy but perpetuate it.

Without minimizing Anne and Robert’s pain, he communicates his enthrallment by the light their experience shines on ancient questions: Is there a physical or chemical source in the brain of artistic inspiration?

Even “O, o, o, o” becomes an occasion for enthrallment.

It is an unnerving tale mixing erotic enthrallment with pathos and horror.
