Interview with A Vampire

It is quite interesting to see in the beginning that there are only a couple of vampires and then there leads to be more and more throughout the journeys of each vampire. The interactions with each vampire are quite interesting because there seems to follow a pattern of death and travel with each one. That is pretty much death and deception. I say this because the first time we see it is when Louis and Claudia plan on killing Lestat. Why would they do this? It could be hatred toward Lestat for making her something she didn’t want to be. Another time we see this pattern is when Lestat comes back from the dead to kill them. This is number 2 for an attempt to kill because of spite possibly. The third time this happens is when Louise and Claudia move to another place but don’t like it. This time the pattern is to keep traveling. This continues on and on throughout the books. It’s almost like wherever they go, they are destined not to fit into a particular place or as it cursed for them to be at. We see this whenever they move to a new place. It seems this pattern repeats over and over.

Another characteristic I noticed throughout this book was that the vampires don’t seem to really care how they affect the person they are targeting or getting hatred for because they seem to be a little selfish. I say this because they are willing to kill and transform their loved ones for their own good. This is a pattern that seems to not bother them but I do see that it has dire consequences for each vampire that commits this pattern of tragedy. Either one leaves the other, someone gets killed, or betrayed. It’s a cycle that never seems to end like in the end where the boy packs up and wants to meet another vampire. I suspect that the cycle of patterns will continue because it is built into the vampire’s blood to do all these acts. They seem to have a love that is much different than humans.
