The Elvis Oke of Chris Abani's novel is a child left to fend for himself in the urban jungle of Lagos, Nigeria. He has a talent for Elvis impersonations (hence the name) and wants to make it big so he can escape his violent and tumultuous life. In a place where angels fear to tread and only fools rush in, Elvis searches for redemption and a small piece of graceland.

While I had a hard time getting into this book at first, I'm glad I stuck with it. Authors usually do a good job of reading their own books, and this is an excellent reading. "Graceland" provides an insiders look at the ghettos of Nigeria, and it's really cool to get a view of what people think of America and its popular culture (the books is set in the 70's and 80's) who have never actually been to the US before. This book will most likely give you an appreciation of a place you've never been.
