In her posthumous memoir, "From Here to the Great Unknown," Lisa Marie Presley reveals profound insights and emotional struggles surrounding her life, particularly after the death of her son, Benjamin Keough, in 2020. One of the most shocking revelations is that she kept Benjamin’s body at home for nearly two months, preserved on ice. Lisa Marie explained that during this time, she struggled with overwhelming grief and felt a deep attachment to her son, stating, “I got so used to him being there”. The memoir delves into her inability to let go after losing him, reflecting the complex nature of her maternal bond and the extent of her grief.

Additionally, the memoir touches on her turbulent relationship with her ex-husband Michael Jackson, asserting that he was still a virgin at the age of 35 during their marriage. Lisa Marie quotes Jackson as saying he had never had sexual relations with anyone. The memoir is not solely focused on loss; it also recounts the entire spectrum of Lisa Marie’s life experiences, including her battles with opioid addiction, where she describes taking up to 80 pills daily to escape her painful reality.

The book has garnered significant attention, especially from media outlets and critics, as it intricately portrays the struggles of loving and losing a child amidst celebrity culture. Riley Keough, Lisa Marie's daughter, also expresses her insights into the book's emotional weight, which has been selected as an Oprah's Book Club pick, emphasizing its significance in articulating matters of grief, love, and resilience in the face of tragedy. The memoir not only offers a glimpse into the life of Elvis Presley’s daughter but also sheds light on universal themes of loss and the human condition.
