...evil sisters in the Venetian equivalent to a voodoo ceremony. As the luckless, lovelorn slave, an expressive young dancer named Christopher Aponte is called upon to perform a sensuous duet with the courtesan's red cloak, leaving the unfortunate impression that he is secretly a cloth fetishist...
THIS BIOGRAPHY is overwhelming in both the good and the bad sense. Over a decade of brilliant (obsessive?) research has produced the facts that Faulkner fetishists crave--and who has read Faulkner and is not in a small way a fetishist for facts about this mysterious man? Although I do not consider my own hero-worship of dead authors excessive, I did find it interesting that Faulkner patronized Aunt Rose Arnold's New Orleans whore-house at Chatres and Jackson Square.

Besides being a racist--and, of course, a killer--Doyle is also a bit of a boot-fetishist.

Superiors in Madness. The setting of the play is the fashionable modern equivalent of a madhouse, a psychiatric clinic. Dr. Prentice (Laurence Luckinbill) has just advertised for a secretary-typist. In comes Geraldine Barclay (Diana Davila), a toothsome cutie of unblemished innocence. Before anyone can say "stocking fetishist," he has her stockings off. Before anyone can yell "body snatcher," she is lying nude on the doctor's examination couch (behind a curtain, that is-this play caters only to the playgoer's imagination). In comes the doctor's wife (Jan Farrand), a blonde minibombshell charitably described...
