Elvis Featured on Cover of Lisa Marie Presley's Memoir, Finished by Daughter Riley Keough

The late Lisa Marie Presley is set to tell her story from the great beyond with some help from her daughter, Riley Keough. And now we know what the cover of the book will look like.

Due on Oct. 15 from Random House is From Here to the Great Unknown: A Memoir, the publisher announced on Tuesday (June 4). Random House also shared the cover featuring a young Lisa Marie Presley with her father, Elvis Presley.

"Born to an American myth and raised in the wilds of Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley tells her whole story in this one-of-a-kind memoir completed by her daughter, Riley Keough," reads Random House's post, announcing the title.

The book's official website reveals that Lisa Marie Presley had been working on her memoir prior to her death on Jan. 12, 2023. "She'd been working on a raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir for years, recording countless hours of breathtakingly vulnerable tape, which has finally been put on the page by her daughter, Riley Keough," according to text on the website.

Lisa Marie Presley asked Keough for her help back in 2022, a month before her death. With Lisa Marie's passing there was a chance that "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," the website reads.

However, that changed once Keough began to listen to the material that her mother had left behind. "Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, laid 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 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," the book's website reads. "About her singular, lifelong relationship with Danny Keough, about being married to Michael Jackson, what they shared 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."

As the site notes, the book contains the words of Lisa Marie and Keough. "A mother and daughter communicating across the transom of 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."
