Une interview d'Anne Rice

[jerome]

Elle est en anglais ici (merci vampirisme.com). Anne Rice parle des vampires modernes mais revient aussi sur l'origine de sa passion pour les vampires.

Extrait :
"Thanks! So what first attracted you to vampire stories?
As a child, I saw this beautiful film, Dracula’s Daughter, and it was with Gloria Holden and was a sequel to the original Dracula. It was all about this beautiful daughter of Dracula who was an artist in London, and she felt drinking blood was a curse. It had beautiful, sensitive scenes in it, and that film mesmerized me. It established to me what vampires were—these elegant, tragic, sensitive people. I was really just going with that feeling when writing Interview With the Vampire. I didn’t do a lot of research."

Elle parle aussi de ses projets :
"What are you working on now?
Oh, I’m interested in exploring Atlantis. I’m working on a novel now—I was working on it before I broke off to do The Wolf Gift—and it’s called Born for Atlantis, and it’s about several immortals sent to the planet during the time of Atlantis and it tells the story of what happened. They’re now still alive in the modern age and they’re facing a crisis. I’m also working on something to do with aliens."
