-the early Sun days...

-the "lost" recordings with Jerry Lee, Carl and Sam Perkins, and Johnny Cash...

-the public outrage over "Elvis the Pelvis"...

-how the King really felt about his fame and the phenomena...

-the Hollywood years...

-the millions he made--and lost...

-the true, untold love story of Elvis and Priscilla...

and much, much more!

1-0 out of 5 stars Only for Elvis Novices
I have read so many books on Elvis, that I found this book to be a compliation of information already obtained from other authors. This book is strictly for the "beginner", looking to amuse themself with tidbits of unrelated information. Therefore, if you have been a reader of several books on Elvis already, don't waste your money here, for you have already come across this information. ... Read more

Book Description

Stella Patchouli, an aristocrat's daughter, spends her childhood exiled in Switzerland. At age 13, she runs away on a midnight train to Munich, carrying her good luck charm: an Elvis Presley album. She survives her teenage years as a nude dancer and a celebrated star in France. In August 1975, she meets her idol in Las Vegas. Her date with destiny takes her to Memphis Tennessee where she witnesses the last months of Elvis' life and his slow, agonizing, so-called "tragic death". In this autobiography, the conspiracy to keep The King forever young is exposed; a plan so well mapped out that those who did it will never be held liable for the perfect Rock 'n' Roll "Hit". ...

1-0 out of 5 stars What is this? Is it real?
Are we reading the same book? This is utter tripe. A vain, silly woman (is she for real?) seems to have written her life story in 10 minutes. And then she adds in some Elvis to interest fans. Halfway through it, I was starting to think it was all made up. Is it? Are there people like this out there? They met Elvis once or twice and then write a book about it.

What drivel. Stop printing garbage like this and stop trying to fleece Elvis fans.

5-0 out of 5 stars No lies, no pretense here. Just honesty and courage¿
Once in a while, one has the privilege of coming across (stumbling across really) a book that captivates one's imagination and grips one's emotions from beginning to end.

"Tears of a Shadow" is such a book.
I bought the book initially because one chapter deals with a topic I am doing some research on. When I got the book, instead of going directly to the chapter that was of interest to me, I made the mistake of starting with the very first page... and I found that I could not put the book down. I read it straight through... and read it again... I was hooked...

This book is written simply without false pretense. It consists of a series of vignettes, bits of the puzzle of the author's life. In the end, the puzzle complete, one gets a glimpse of an extraordinary woman's persona.

The book operates on many levels. On one level, it is simply the life of a woman recounted through her many encounters with famous or not so famous people, including Elvis. This is very interesting in and of itself. But, in my opinion, the golden nuggets lie elsewhere on a different layer of reality and consciousness.

A child exiled, exiled from family and loved ones, exiled from her country and culture, and exiled, most importantly, from herself, alone in a world that is not hers must find ways to survive on her own. The book, deep down, is really about her courageous "journey through the desert" from that alien world to the "virgin land" that so many exiles ultimately may call home. We witness her metamorphosis from the child who puts a pillow over her head to shut out an inhospitable world to the woman who creates a world that she can call her own and finds hope in small and insignificant things (the most important ones).

This is an extraordinary book and its power lies in its authenticity. No lies, no pretense here. Just honesty and courage...

I hope this author keeps writing books. I have the sneaking suspicion that she has something special to offer the world...

5-0 out of 5 stars Elvis' Death Was Not Accidental...
Any Elvis fan will find Stella Patchouli's novel a most compelling and exciting read. With the many Elvis conspiracy theories filing tomes, it is refreshing to find a story that finally makes some sense and is emminently plausible. This book is a must read for any one interested in learning about Elvis's final days through the eyes of a female lover and not one of his male cronies and synchophants. I recommed it highly. ...

1-0 out of 5 stars Too many mistakes!
This book has literally hundreds of factual errors, and that makes it useless as a reference guide. But those errors are not the worst of it. In the introduction, the author writes, " . . .Elvis was the antithesis of society's morals. His wild performances broke from the bland American mainstream of 'Ozzie and Harriet' or 'Father Knows Best,' and the oppressed, youthful minority went wild over this raunchy, flagrantly sexual boy from the wrong side of the tracks." Of course, none of that is correct. "Morals' or "wild" never entered the picture for Elvis in the 1950s. Kids went to his performances because the music was new and exciting.

5-0 out of 5 stars More than you might want to know about the King
If I only could have one fact source book about Elvis, this would be it. It contains the most complete overview of his life I have ever seen, compiled in chronological order and supplemented by detailed lists of Elvis data. A word of warning: If you want to keep your eyes closed to all but the positives in his life, this is NOT the book for you, because it contains the good, the bad, and the ugly aspects of his life. I am of the belief he was the greatest popular entertainer of all time, and this book certainly attests to that. But he also had way more than his share of human foibles, and they are included too. I'm glad it's part of my research library, and I have and will refer to it often.

1-0 out of 5 stars A waste of money to buy, a waste of time to read.
I have been an Elvis fan and collector since the fifties. I pride myself on my personal knowledge of and my extensive library on Elvis. If you want a book full of grossly erroneous information, this is it! There is no shortage of readily available data on every aspect of Elvis' life, but this "author" does not know how to do research and, clearly, was herself as ignorent on the subject of Elvis when she finished her book as she was when she started. A waste of money to buy and a waste of time to read! Useless as a reference book because it is full or major errors. I rate this book zero stars. ... Read more
