"Vampires and American presidents began to converge in my imagination, not because all presidents are equally vampiric, but because both are personification of their age [...] Since I loved vampires before I hated Republicans, this book also reflects my idiosyncrasies.”--Our Vampires, Ourselves (1995) by Nina Auerbach, p. 3 |
