Publisher Comments:

In the novel that introduced Anne Rice to the world, Interview with the Vampire, a reporter seeks out the facts behind an extraordinary life. In the years since, Anne Rice has created a remarkable and acclaimed body of work--encompassing her celebrated Vampire Chronicles, The Lives of the Mayfair Witches novels, two haunting historical epics, and her controversial, equally sought-after excursions into erotica. One of the world's best known and biggest bestselling authors of contemporary fiction, Rice has herself been the subject of countless interviews, profiles, and a full-length biography. Yet, who Anne Rice is, and the beliefs, fascinations, desires, fears, and passions that inspire her work, remain endlessly fascinating topics. In this first-of-its-kind book-length interview with Anne Rice, film scholar and author Michael Riley seeks out--and finds--the truth behind the extraordinary life and work of a unique, tantalizing writer.

In Conversations with Anne Rice, the creator of Lestat, Louis, and Lasher talks in depth--and in her own words--about everything: from her early struggles toward publication to the tremendous literary reputation she has achieved. From the success and adulation of the vampire novels to the lesser-known books that are her personal favorites. From the influence of classical and popular literature to that of Catholicism and eroticism. From the role of movies in her literary vision to her definitive critique of the film version of Interview with the Vampire, and far beyond.

Here, then, is Anne Rice--her heart, her psyche, her soul--in candid and captivating dialogue with her audience.

this book is a wonderful book. it lets you get to know the lady who wrote the vampire chronicles and understand her differently than you may have. Seeing since Anne Rice no longer writes about Lestat and is writeing books about jesus it is sort of strange for all her fans of the vampire chronicles. i mean when i pictured her when i read the vampire chronicle books i pictured a gothic lady who was very weird and did not belive in god. now we all know her husband died and she has stopped writeing the vampire chronicles and other dark horror stories or science fiction stories but this book says to me that anne rice truley belived in god before she ever started the vampire chronicles. it is a older book yes it is from way before her husband died and all but if you are a real Anne Rice fan you might want to read this book beacuase it give you the knowledge of who this woman really is. who knows you might like it
