When I first read the book of The Interview with a Vampire I was very interested in the main character ouis de Pointe du Lac. In the beginning, we see how Louis lives in Louisiana, and was the owner of a plantation with his mother and brother.
Later we can see how Louis moved to New Orleans, from the tragic death of his brother. Louis wanted to die, but then found a certain person named Lestat who offered him a life forever. Louis accepted the proposal and began the Conversion to a vampire, Louis was full of guilt, for the death of his brother. That makes me think how the guilt can lead to impulsive decisions that you can regret later.
Anne Rice creates an unconventional famiy of 2 men and a daughter called Claudia . She is an little eternal girl, of five years that will be a witness that immortality is not for everyone, because it is complex and above all painful. It is a woman trapped in the body of a girl.
It makes me think about the possibility of living infinitely but also having the curse of
life forever. The paradox of life and immortality are opposites. The opposite personalities of the characters Louis and Lestat make me understand the dark world that is seen from the perspective of vampires.Louis and Claudia travel to europe where they found there are other vampires. The other vampires that teach them about the life of vampires and the origin of their species.
The book has different characters such as Luis, who likes his humanity is capable
to feel like a human, is depressed, melancholic existentialist. You can also see his humanity because he decides to feed on rats instead of humans. Lestat, who turns Louis into a Vampire, is a vampire without feelings, arrogant and egocentric, uninhibited, everything he does for his own benefit.
