Product information
Dutch edition of the revealing story of one of the most legendary families in American history
American myth and raised in the wilderness of Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley tells her story for the first time in this raw, compelling, and unique memoir. Completed by her daughter, Riley Keough.
At the end of 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help her complete her memoir. A month later, Lisa Marie passed away, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman Riley had loved so much.
Riley decided to play the recordings her mother had made for this book. Lying in bed, she listened to stories about crashing golf carts at Graceland, about her father's unconditional love, and about the time they spent together. About being dragged screaming from the bathroom while his body lay on the floor. About living in Los Angeles with her mother, about being expelled from school repeatedly and always being in trouble. About her lifelong relationship with Danny Keough, about being married to Michael Jackson and what they had in common. About motherhood. About addictions. About the ever-present grief. Riley knew she had to fulfill her mother's wish to publish these memories—however raw and painful. So that the world would know her mother.
In this extraordinary book, Lisa Marie and Riley alternate, like a conversation between mother and daughter—from this world to the afterlife—as they try to heal each other. From Here to the Great Unknown is a beautiful, deeply moving, and revealing story and the final words of the only child of an American icon.
