Interview with
the Vampire
The book is a confessional narrative of the vampire Louis, who tells a journalist the story of his life — from his transformation by Lestat in the eighteenth century to the loss of his faith, love, and humanity. Through the centuries, Louis searches for the meaning of his immortality, struggling with his thirst for blood and the sorrow of a lost soul.

Everything is steeped in the scent of old New Orleans, the flicker of candlelight, and the feeling of eternal night. While reading, it feels as if you are listening to a confession in the stillness of darkness — mesmerizing, terrifying, and painfully beautiful.
