Original author John Ajvide Lindqvist said, "Nobody has asked me about [doing a comic] and I think that the project stinks. S. Little did I know that even the Swedish producers didn’t have the collective nutsack to give us the full story on how goddamn twisted the book is.

The cast’s breath fogs up on stage, a visual trick that makes quite a few audience members use their coats as blankets, despite the Playhouse’s perfectly regulated temperature. Among the details revealed is that Eli is a boy named Elias who was castrated when he was turned into a vampire over 200 years ago. This is a gloriously gruesome and disturbing horror novel that would probably cause Stephanie Meyer to have a stroke if she ever even dared to hold a copy of it in her hackish little hands. The subtext surrounding sexuality and gender were very interesting, although I wish the author had been more explicit with his representation.

And maybe if you've read a book like this too, you might be able to understand why there's really nothing more for me to say.

The book grapples with the darker side of humanity, including such issues as existential anxiety, social isolation, fatherlessness, divorce, alcoholism, school bullying, pedophilia, genital mutilation, self-mutilation, and murder. And he messes around with it for a couple of minutes, until he's suddenly transformed it into "Here's farewell to the games with the girls" from The Marriage of Figaro.If you are not a very empathetic person, I can see standing back and judging almost everyone in this book as a bad person--the alcoholics, the jobless, the terribly lost and lonely people, etc. the first vampire books that I read were from Twilight books and after that whatever I read of them, I read in PNF genre.

The show transferred to the Apollo Theatre in March 2014, [28] having received positive reviews from a number of national media outlets.shudder* Trust me, by the end of the story, Hakan dumps a whole truckload of creepy all over the story. I enjoyed the main characters, I enjoyed how the issues dealt with herein-bullying, alcoholism, pedophilia were introduced and discussed, and I definitely enjoyed the ending! There are thousands of ratings and reviews on this book, plus there's a movie, so what more can I contribute to this conversation?
