Elvissey is the story of a troubled couple who voyage across time on a desperate mis sion--to kidnap the young Elvis Presley and make him a demigod in a decadent urban future.
At once a biting satire and a taut, fast-paced thriller, Elvissey is the story of Isabel and John, a troubled couple who voyage from the year 2033 to a strangely altered 1954. They are on a desperate mission to kidnap the young Elvis Presley and bring him back to the present day to serve as a ready-made cult leader. He proves, however, to be a reluctant messiah, and things do not work out quite as planned.
