Status Updates From Vampir Lestat (The Vampire ...

Lestat, scrawling messages to Marius on the walls: hey so just in case you aren't dead, help, my mom wants to leave me and keeps going on about destroying all of humanity, and the guy I'm sort of in love with has sort of killed my ex. Did I mention the guy I'm sort of in love with is also your ex? I think I'm gonna bury myself in someone's backyard now, peace out

«Entended que, como yo era el amo y el único en la familia capaz todavía de montar a caballo y disparar un arma, era lógico que los aldeanos acudieran a mí para quejarse de los lobos y pedirme que los matara. Y era mi deber hacerlo» Okay, Lestat. Está bien, ya no negaré que estoy enamorada de ti (nunca lo he negado). Qué hombre. Pensar que tenemos la misma edad, jamás podría hacer todo eso. ¿Querrá una esposa?

Oh I had forgotten how lush Anne Rice’s writing was. How much more to the story there was besides love. Lestat was in love, but you don’t last centuries just for love. Lestat was curious about the world, about philosophy and eternity and what it meant to be human. It’s so different to read this in middle age and be his age.
