Very interesting story! wow. A totally different story to all other Vampire stories I've read. This is the story of a vampire who having realized his current state of being, goes on a search to find who he is and maybe to some extend to find more way to realize his won wrong doing. We are in a room face to face with the Louis as he tells us how he ended up here. The state of the vampire here can be the metaphor for many human characteristics, i.e drug abusers, etc.
Rice tells the story with a method that is simple enough in nature, but she writes in such a way that the reader can’t easily see into her mechanism. Using the tool of 'flash-backs' she stops Louis’s story and returns to present day when ever story requires, as well as giving certain info at certain points of the story and and extending a particular scene to create tension - simple good storytelling.
