She would have been reading all of the comments and the dms about how many people related to her story in some way and found it to be cathartic.” “I’m excited for this new little life the book is having and for it to end up in more people’s hands who may have the same experience,” Keough continued. “Thanks to everyone on her behalf for all of the love and support. @randomhouse.” Riley Keough Previously Said Finishing Her Mom’s Book Was ‘Incredibly Painful’ Prior to the release of the book last year, Keough opened up about the process of finishing the book after Lisa Marie’s death, something she described as being “incredibly painful.” Since her mom had recorded memories in audio tapes while working on the project, Keough remembered being “so afraid to hear my mother’s voice” as she combed through the stories Lisa Marie left behind. “It was incredibly painful but I couldn’t stop,” Keough wrote in the book’s introduction. “It was like she was in the room, talking to me. I instantly felt like a child again and I burst into tears.” The book takes readers through a number of pivotal moments throughout Lisa Marie’s life, including the experience of losing her dad, the King of Rock and Roll, when she was only 9 years old. The book also covers Lisa Marie’s romantic relationships, growing up with Priscilla Presley as her mother, as well as the loss of her son, Benjamin Keough, in 2020. From Here to the Great Unknown is now available in hardcover, audio and paperback editions.
