Elvis Rising: Stories on the King
T. Coraghessan Boyle Elvis is Everywhere! At the Blue Moon...where his generosity rescues a forlorn waitress from her own personal Heartbreak Hotel. In a roadside diner...where a clash between a detractor & a devotee has comically unappetizing consequences. At Graceland...where a would-be mass murderer achieves a bizarre state of grace. Now, the brightest lights in contemporary fiction offer their own variations on an enduring American Elvis Presley, the King of Rock-n-Roll. Here is Elvis in the flesh & fantasy — the icon, the spirit, the idea — in 16 stunning & hilarious, poignant & outrageous riffs on stardom & obsession.
