malevolent Explanation: ...his malevolent/malicious/evil gaze/ stare draws us into... the tragedy of Bodas de Sangre malevolent gaze evil stare This is one of the possible translations according to Collins, along with "having corners" or "in a corner" - neither of which could apply here. So, probably nothing to do with "sidelong" or any of its synonyms (= mirada esquivada?) |
