A witty tribute to Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, this surreal, futuristic narrative explores the highly topical relationships between obesity, government health care, pop culture, and body image. In a world where chocolate is worth more than cocaine on the black market, government-sanctioned vigilantes known as Good Humor Men patrol the streets, seeking to immolate all fattening food products as illegal contraband and summarily cancel the health insurance of any offenders. An evil nutraceutical company controls the food market with products engineered to keep the population painfully thin, while a mysterious wasting plague threatens to starve humanity. An ex-plastic surgeon whose father performed a secret liposuction surgery on Elvis Presley may hold the key to humanity's future. Incorporating a colorful cast of characters -- a civil servant with questionable motives, an acquisitive assassin, a power-mad preacher evangelising anorexia, a beautiful young woman addicted to liposuction, and a homicidal clone from an experiment gone terribly awry -- this satirical romp asks the question Can Elvis save the world 64 years after his death?"
