From #1 New York Times bestselling author Anne Rice, this sensuously written spellbinding classic remains `the most successful vampire story since Bram Stoker`s Dracula` (The Times) In a darkened room a young man sits telling the macabre and eerie story of his life - the story of a vampire, gifted with eternal life, cursed with an exquisite craving for human blood. When Interview with the Vampire was published the Washington Post said it was a `thrilling, strikingly original work of the imagination . . . sometimes horrible, sometimes beautiful, always unforgettable`. Now, more than forty years since its release, Anne Rice`s masterpiece is more beloved than ever.
