A collection of our greatest poets' writing about Elvis Presley whose fame and popularity have far exceeded Andy Warhol's "fifteen minute" limit. This anthology of poems about Elvis invites readers to experience the connection between the historical and mythical status of The King, on the one hand, and the poetic imagery of him on the other. All Shook Up! combines history and myth and artin the words of some of our most wellknown poets and in the elegant and revealing photographs of Jon Hughes. Contributors' notes and comments follow the poems and serve to help the readers familiarize themselves with the poets and how they write.
