Sexual obsession is well-worn territory for Erotic Thrillers, a subgenre that often features men who think with their libido rather than their brain. When you spend your life thinking about screwing, it tends to screw with your life.
This is the central premise of Josephine Hart’s 1991 novel Damage, which was transformed in the 1992 film of the same name, and, most recently, was adapted into the four part Netflix series Obsession.
In both adaptations, a wealthy, powerful, middle-aged married man becomes sexually obsessed with his son’s new girlfriend. They begin an affair, and the sexual desire costs the man everything: his job, his marriage, and the life of his son, who dies tragically when he falls over a banister after witnessing his father fucking his fiancé.
What’s interesting about both Damage and Obsession is how both texts adopt the tropes of an Erotic Thriller, albeit by substituting criminal or murderous activity for melodrama.

Ahmedabad, May 30 (Ians) Chennai Super Kings (Csk) coach Stephen Fleming has showered praise on Ravindra Jadeja for his match-winning performance, saying the all-rounder is a gun player and he delivered for the team in the final.
Jadeja, whose contribution with the bat was a mixed one this year, proved to be the hero for Csk in the all-important Ipl final against Gujarat Titans (Gt) , here on Monday.
In a nail-biting encounter affected by rain, Jadeja displayed remarkable composure by smashing a six and four, successfully scoring the required 10 runs from the last two balls as the Chennai-based side chased down the revised target of 171 runs in just 15 overs to clinch secure their fifth Ipl title.
During the post-match press conference, Fleming expressed admiration for the 34-year-old’s outstanding performance and emphasized his significant contribution as a bowler to the team.

Chennai, April 22 (Ians) After securing a seven-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad, Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming revealed fast-bowling all-rounder Ben Stokes will be on the sidelines, most likely for another week after his latest injury setback.
Stokes, who is also England’s Test captain, has played just two out of Chennai’s six matches so far in Ipl 2023 due to a toe injury, apart from also nursing a troublesome left knee issue.
“He had another little setback yesterday, so he’s probably a few days or a week away at least. This is a challenge. Now the team is playing well. The first thing is him being fit and then if we have a headache around selection.”
“Our priority is getting Ben fit and ready to play, that’s what we are concentrating on. At the moment, he’s not quite ready. But as soon as he is,...
