 Anne Rice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rice has said that Claudia, the young girl in the book, was inspired by her late daughter.
To her admirers, Rice's books are among the best in modern popular fiction, considered by some to possess those elements that create a lasting presence in the literary canon.
She was married to the late poet Stan Rice and is the mother of novelist Christopher Rice.

 ANNE RICE — AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
On Oct. 31, 2003, three years short of her first novel’s thirtieth anniversary, Alfred A. Knopf was poised to release Anne Rice’s twenty-fifth novel, Blood Canticle, a tale that unites the Vampire Chronicles and the Mayfair Witches series…a volume that Rice intends to serve as the capstone for both sagas.
Rice: It is. It really encompasses the second book, very much, and some of the third, as I recall.
Rice: No. I still think the form of that novel is a failure.

 Anne Rice
Criss-crossing through the stories of other vampires from Rice’s glorious Pantheon of the undead, haunted by Pandora and by his alter ego Mael, tracked by the Talamasca, the tale of Marius, the self-styled guardian of `those who must be kept’ is the most wondrous and mindblowing of them all.
When the Visigoths sack his city, Marius is there; with the resurgence of the glory that was Rome, he is there, still searching for his lost love Pandora, but bewitched in turn by Botticelli, by the Renaissance beauty Bianca, with her sordid secrets, and by the boy he calls Amadeo.
Having lost her mother when she was 15 years old and later on a daughter to leukaemia, Anne Rice created tales of vampires and everlasting life to help her through the pain.

 Profile: Anne Rice
While Rice isn't new to the bestseller circuit, her books haven't always been greeted with this type of enthusiasm.
The setting is mainly the Roman Empire and Rice's attention to historical and character detail is unflagging.
And we agreed that the small novels in the spring would be these new stories of vampires and they would be these stories of characters that had not had a chance to come forward and tell their tales."

Rice continues to publish regularly, often set at least in part in the city she loves.
Rice's family moved into this traditional-style raised villa when Anne was 14.
Many tourists come here just because they have read her books; she writes seductive descriptions of her hometown that are actually quite accurate -- minus the vampires, witches, and ghosts, of course.

 Salon Anne Rice
(I didn't mention Rice's addiction to run-on sentences.) That said, I praised three of her books to the sky: "Interview With the Vampire," "The Vampire Lestat" and "Memnoch the Devil." I claimed these vampire titles were three of the most interesting novels of the 20th century.
In my essay, I didn't rave quite this enthusiastically about "Memnoch." Sentence-by-sentence, the book is slight, but Rice takes the theology of the vampire novel to its ultimate conclusion: Lestat, her star vampire, literally drinks the blood of our redeemer, Jesus Christ.
As for fictional vampires, Anne Rice reinvented the genre, making Bram Stoker nothing more than a footnote.

Anne Rice's writing is also very detailed and stunning, as it always is. Through Lestat's words readers see his change from a man to an immortal and the world he enters into after having to destroy his master.
I first heard of Anne Rice 11 years ago when her famous book was being released as a motion picture, Interview with the Vampire, of course.
Rice does stumble in "Tales of the Body Thief," which seems like too flimsy a plot for Lestat and Co., has an unnecessary nun romance, and which has some very gross moments.
