Published Nov. 6, 1977 by Ballantine Books.
Here are the confessions of a vampire. Hypnotic, shocking, and chillingly erotic, this is a novel of mesmerizing beauty and astonishing force-a story of danger and flight, of love and loss, of suspense and resolution, and of the extraordinary power of the senses. It is a novel only Anne Rice could write. --back cover
Some brief moments of beautiful writing but mostly dull and melodramatic. I just wasn’t into the vibe but I can see how people can be enamored by it.
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.
read this years ago. a true classic of the genre. Far far better than the twilight series
