Interview with the vampire (Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles) (№ 52357)

It happened in 1791. I was 24, I was younger than You are now. But those times were different, at that age, I was already a man: the owner of a sick plantation just South of New Orleans. I lost my wife during childbirth, and she and the child were buried for almost six months. I'd be happy to join them. I could not bear the pain of loss. I wanted to get rid of it. I wanted to lose everything: my wealth, my estate, my sanity. My invitation was open to all. The whore next to me. Pimp walking behind. But whoever it was, was a vampire.
