Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire revolutionized the vampire genre, transforming supernatural mythology into a profound exploration of immortality, loneliness, and moral complexity. Following Louis de Pointe du Lac's narrative of his transformation and life with the vampire Lestat, Rice creates a rich, psychological portrait that goes far beyond traditional horror tropes. This anniversary edition makes the classic accessible to new generations of readers.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Rice understood that monsters are most interesting when they're most human. Interview with the Vampire isn't about supernatural terror, but about the very human struggles of belonging, love, and understanding oneself.
