Subject: man-tormenter Пожалуйста, помогите перевести man-tormenterСлово встречается в следующем контексте: Juan is accompanied by his mentally retarded brother Alfonso and his niece Tamara. He's his niece's guardian, and therein lies a tale. Tamara's father was Juan's brother Damián. And Tamara's mother was a glorious man-tormenter called Charo with elongated limbs and a blow-hot, blow-cold nature. Rather like ... the interesting coastal weather conditions. Hell, Juan tells himself, "has legs, two long legs that leave their taut, sinuous, luxuriant imprint on the retinas of the condemned". Abjectly infatuated, he'd been sleeping with his sister-in-law for a decade when she died with a new suitor in a car crash. Not long after that, Damián told Juan in the middle of a steaming brotherly row that he knew all about this illicit trysting, and then fell backwards, taking a step into air instead of on to a stair. A sickening crunch, and Juan's life, not to mention Damián's, would never be the same again Заранее спасибо
