Lisa Marie Presley’s posthumous memoir is chock full of revelations, ranging from heartbreaking to salacious, regarding her own life as well as the private lives of fellow famous faces, including her ex-husband Michael Jackson and late father Elvis.
“From Here to the Great Unknown” hit shelves Tuesday and was co-written by Presley’s eldest child, actress Riley Keough.
Of agreeing to help pen the book, Keough — who became the sole trustee of her mother’s estate, as well as the owner of Graceland, following Presley’s sudden death in January 2023 — says her mom believed she could have a “more holistic view of her life than she could.”
“The last 10 years of her life had been so brutally hard that she was only able to look back on everything through that lens,” Keough writes in the introduction, according to an excerpt published by People. “I agreed to help her with it, not thinking much of the commitment, assuming we would write it together over time. A month later, she died.”
