The Great Unknown

In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-gestating memoir.

A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman that Riley loved and now grieved.

Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story about smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about being upstairs, just the two of them. About getting dragged screaming out of the bathroom as she ran toward his body on the floor. About living in Los Angeles with her mother, getting sent to school after school, always kicked out, always in trouble. About her singular, lifelong relationship with Danny Keough, about being married to Michael Jackson, what they had in common. About motherhood. About deep addiction. About ever-present grief. Riley knew she had to fulfill her mother’s wish to reveal these memories, incandescent and painful, to the world.

Description

The Great Unknown

From Here to the Great Unknown is a hauntingly intimate and emotionally raw memoir that explores the life of Lisa Marie Presley, co-authored and completed by her daughter, Riley Keough. Based on recordings Lisa Marie made before her passing in 2023, the memoir offers a deeply personal look into her childhood at Best Biographies & Memoirs Books Graceland, the pressures of being Elvis Presley’s only child, and her own struggles with identity, addiction, and motherhood. The audiobook, narrated by Riley Keough and actress Julia Roberts, alternates between Lisa Marie’s original words and Riley’s reflections, creating a powerful dual perspective. It recounts stories of mischief and trauma—like witnessing her father’s death at age nine, her turbulent marriages including to Michael Jackson, and her descent into opioid addiction after childbirth. The most devastating chapters deal with the loss of her son Benjamin to suicide in 2020, a grief so profound it nearly shattered her. This memoir is not just a story of fame and tragedy—it’s also one of survival, legacy, and the complicated love between a mother and daughter.
