Burning Elvis by John Burnside
This is about innocence and fear, about boys and men who have no idea who they are or what they are supposed to do, but are haunted by a vague apprehension of possible grace. In their differing ways, they are lost, scared and caught up in a quest, a search for the real "Graceland".
