About this listen

Winner of the Audible Best of the Year Award for Celebrity Memoirs

Including the never-before-heard tape recordings of Lisa Marie Presley, this audiobook is movingly read by her daughter, Riley Keough, and multi award-winning actress Julia Roberts.

Born to an American myth and raised in the wilds of Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley tells her whole story for the first time in this raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir faithfully completed by her daughter, Riley Keough.

In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-conceived 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 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, Elvis; about being upstairs, just the two of them. About getting dragged screaming out of the bathroom as she ran towards 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, and about being married to Michael Jackson, and 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.

To make her mother known.

This extraordinary book is composed of both Lisa Marie’s and Riley’s voices, a mother and daughter communicating across the chasm of life and death as they try to heal each other. Profoundly moving and deeply revealing, From Here to the Great Unknown is a book like no other – the last words of the only child of a true legend.

Critic reviews

The result is an intimate celebrity memoir that gets beyond trashy revelation or prissy image control to tell something that sounds like the truth
Tragedy and addiction vie for your attention in this jaw-dropping memoir
This is a portrait of someone who strived for a normal life but for whom normality was forever denied
The book is of two minds: It’s an unadorned, conversational memoir that’s more matter of fact than gossipy . . . And it’s a frank, almost unbearably heavy meditation on grief . . . Stunningly candid . . . Both women write gracefully about the unbearable, immovable heaviness of grief. Keough’s portrait of her mother in her final months is especially indelible
Instead of tap dancing around the hard parts, we’re drilling into the bedrock . . . and these passages show how determined she [Lisa Marie] was to stand up to her demons
Thoroughly engrossing portrait of intergenerational sorrows
A truly wild, compelling tale
You don’t have to be a Presley fan to be riveted by the revelations
All stars

very raw Riley comes across so honest and so respectful ... You can feel the love while you listening and be absorbed into their lives ...

so heartbreaking

What a sad story, that poor girl saw such trauma in her life and never got over the death of her dad and had to live it all in the public eye. I hope Riley protects herself and Tupelo because Elvis will live on forever through them.

poignant and very sad, well written and narrated

Very honest and sad. I hope all three of them have found peace, wherever they are. Thank you 🙏

So emotional…

Deep, painful , a tortured soul searching for the inevitable sleep. Extremely well read both by Robert’s and Keough. 🥰

Tortured soul

I really wasn’t sure about this, but I don’t think I have ever been as moved as during this book. The narration was excellent as were both points of view. It is a triumph of love; a tale of heartbreak, grief, friendship and life.

Amazing
