Elvis Is Everywhere
Rowland Scherman
- Elvis,
- it
- seems,
- is
- everywhere.
- And
- for
- about
- three
- years,
- Rowland
- Scherman
- went
- looking
- for
- him.
- Elvis
- Is
- Everywhere
- captures
- this
- pursuit,
- in
- 70
- photos
- documenting
- the
- author's
- travels
- to
- Boston,
- Los
- Angeles,
- Nashville,
- Venice
- Beach,
- Orlando,
- Nag’s
- Head,
- Cape
- Cod,
- New
- York,
- Pasadena,
- and,
- of
- course,
- Memphis.
- In
- all
- these
- places
- was
- evidence
- that
- Elvis
- lives,
- at
- least
- in
- spirit,
- long
- after
- his
- well-mourned
- death.This
- book
- is
- not
- so
- much
- about
- Elvis
- as
- it
- is
- about
- us.
- The
- abiding
- loyalty
- and
- reverence
- of
- the
- King’s
- devoted
- fans
- have
- enabled
- him
- to
- transcend
- even
- the
- most
- outrageous
- promotional
- hype.
- His
- image
- and
- his
- name
- have
- been
- absorbed
- into
- the
- language,
- the
- landscape,
- our
- very
- culture.
- Elvis
- continues
- to
- cast
- his
- spell
- on
- our
- collective consciousness.
