Summary

This quote, though brief, suggests that irreligion, or the lack of belief in organized religion and spiritual faith, should be recognized as one of the major belief systems in the world. It challenges the notion that religion is the only valid or dominant worldview and asserts that irreligion deserves equal acknowledgment and validity. This perspective encourages society to be inclusive and accepting of diverse belief systems, including those that do not embrace religion.

I got to the point where the vampire began describing his brother's death, and the whole thing just exploded! Suddenly, in the guise of Louis, a fantasy figure, I was able to touch the reality that was mine. It had something to do with growing up in New Orleans, this strange, decadent city full of antebellum houses. It had something to do with my old-guard Catholic background. It had something to do with the tragic loss of my daughter and with the death of my mother when I was fourteen. Through Louis' eyes, everything became accessible. But I didn't ask when I was writing what it meant; I only asked if it felt authentic. There was an intensity--an intensity that's still there when I write about those characters. As long as it is there, I will go on with them. In some way they are a perfect metaphor for me.
