From Here to the Great Unknown: A Memoir
In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help her finally complete her long-awaited memoir.
A month later, Lisa Marie passed away, leaving the world without her voice, and leaving Riley to mourn the vibrant, loving, and complex woman her mother was.
Riley received the tapes her mother had recorded for the book and lay in bed listening to Lisa Marie recount stories—from crashing golf carts in Graceland’s yard to the unwavering love she felt from her father during their quiet moments together. She recalled the harrowing memory of being dragged from the bathroom, screaming, as she ran toward his lifeless body. Lisa Marie shared her experiences living in Los Angeles with her mother, being expelled from school after school, and her enduring relationship with Danny Keough. She talked about her marriage to Michael Jackson, their shared interests, motherhood, her struggles with addiction, and the constant shadow of grief. Riley understood she had to honor her mother’s wish to bring these vivid and painful memories to light.
