cheery stone-hard smile that sought to anaesthetise her victims

Homework / test English to Romanian Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Confident of her genius, armed with a tongue as merciless as her beauty and as violent as her work, she excluded nobody from her coloratura damnations, all delivered with that cheery stone-hard smile that sought to anaesthetise her victims as she ripped out their innards.

(cu acel) zâmbet împietrit cu care încerca să-și amețească/anestezieze victimele

Evident e doar o idee... variante cu siguranta sunt mai multe...
Peer comment(s):

agree Sandra & Kenneth Grossman : zambet de piatra radios?//Da, e ciudat, dar e important de subliniat zambetul larg, optimist, radios dar "impietrit" (buna alegere) cu care incerca sa-si insele victimele.

Something went wrong...
