Interview with the Vampire


Vampires have always fascinated me. I read the Cirque Du Freak novels at a young age and later read the Twilight saga.  I grew up watching the movie Interview with the Vampire. So it has always been a favorite tale of mine. I found the book to very closely match the movie. Interview with the vampire I feel is a lot about the meaning of life and the search for your place in the world. It seems in most vampire stories there is a soul searching that comes with becoming a vampire. Or lack of soul. Louie wonders if this is hell or if there is a god. I feel he is more compassionate than the other vampires. He is not motivated by greed. He is just going through the motions searching for answers. Louie longs for companionship and for others like him. This is a serious novel and there is no happy ending. A vampires life is one filled with suffering and loneliness.
