Memnoch the Devil
The Choice Which Would Take a Hundred Lifetimes to Make You probably have never heard of Howard Allen O’Brien. In fact, you most likely didn’t know anything about her at all. You, the reader, will however had heard of Anne Rice. She blessed this world with her arrival on October 4, 1941, born under the name Howard Allen O’Brien. Although she legally changed her name to Anne O’Brien Rice, she has released several books under the pen names Anne Rampling and A.N. Roquelaure. She lived most of her childhood from birth in New Orleans, Louisiana, yet she has now moved to San Diego, California to become closer to her son. Within her novels she constantly makes references to her family, to her life, and to her home of New Orleans. Rice’s fiction usually carries a high level of historical background and can thusly be called historical-fiction. Also, Rice’s works are extremely lush, detailed, sometimes operatic, and overtly sensual. More often than not, her characters are very “open” sexually, habitually “displaying homoerotic feeling toward each other” (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anee_Rice), and represents her overall ideology. Most recently, after the death of her husband, the acclaimed poet Stan Rice, and the long passed death of her daughter (1972), she has returned to the Catholic sect of Christianity, leaving her Atheist ideals behind, and has devoted her writing for the Lord, as of October, 2005. Currently she is working on a trilogy covering the life of Jesus. To her many endeared fans, she represents some of the best modern-fiction, while her critics describe her as an elitist sort of writer, although why I cannot perceive. In my eyes she is widely accessible.

Barbara, this is so fascinating.  First of all, this is so clean and pristine and oh so beautiful to behold, but I ADORE Anne Rice.  I had no idea she stopped writing her 'Sleeping Beauty Book 1' my favorite, tee hee, and went on to write for the Lord.  That is so very interesting.  A good thing I suppose, but in a way, sad, as she had such a talent in her many books.  I also read (I forget the name), another of her books, scary, loved it though.  Well, I hope she has found peace. Beautiful job!
