Waiting for Elvis (Inscribed) - Elias, David

INSCRIPTION FROM DAVID ELIAS on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; spine straight and uncreased; absolute minimal wear; A roadside diner west of Thunder Bay pulses with vivid, visceral life. Betty, in her 40s and from a comfortable middle-class home, now runs the diner with her ex-trucker husband Arty. Their heartless son Tony likes to come by with his terrifying friends. Sal, a wandering hermit, drifts in. He looks like bad news too, but Betty sees past that, to the boy whose maimed childhood held one joyous thing - going to see an Elvis movie. In this book, Elias takes away our illusions about who can safely be ignored and forgotten in this world.
