THE SPECTACLE

Juliette Goglia and Nick Thurston share the narration of this thriller set in the high-stakes world of international art dealing. Goglia captures the naïveté of Ingrid, a gallery assistant who falls in love with Rudolph, a shady art dealer who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Goglia also portrays many other irritating female characters with a convincing degree of sarcasm while treating the personal story of the artist Simone with exceptional intensity. As Thurston portrays Rudolph, his tone alternating between edginess and the art dealer's seemingly sincere love for Ingrid, the listener is kept wondering who he really is.
