Interview with the Vampire is a gothic horror and vampire novel by American author Anne Rice, published in 1976. It was her debut novel. Based on a short story Rice wrote around 1968, the novel centers on vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac, who tells the story of his life to a reporter. Rice composed the novel shortly after the death of her young daughter Michelle, who served as an inspiration for the child-vampire character Claudia. Though initially the subject of mixed critical reception, the book was followed by many widely popular sequels, collectively known as The Vampire Chronicles. A film adaptation was released in 1994, starring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, and a television series premiered in 2022. The novel has also been adapted as a comic three times.
Read this after watching the AMC show but before watching the movie. Any point Anne might've been trying to make about Claudia being a metaphor for a disabled person who looks visibly young is thrown violently out the window as Louis does not view Claudia as an adult at the same time that he views her as a sexual being and his bride. Armand walking off into the sea was the funniest shit I'd ever read, though.
Muchísimo mejor esta relectura décadas después, quizás porque ahora puedo entender mejor a un protagonista deprimido, desquiciado y con picos de ansiedad
I'd read this gem when it came out in paperback, and I was 12 years old. I loved it so much, I did an except of the interview as a skit in camp that summer.
