Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Cornelius Eady, Joyce Carol Oates, Ai, Lucille Clifton and Thom Gunn are just a few of the poets who wax sentimental in All Shook Up: Collected Poems about Elvis, edited by Will Clemens, with 22 b&w photographs by Jon Hughes. David Wojhan imagines William Carlos Williams "Watching Presley's Second Appearance on `The Ed Sullivan Show': Mercy Hospital, Newark, 1956": "The tube,/ like the sonnet,/ is a fascist form./ I read they refused/ to show this kid's/ wriggling bum."
