Priscilla Presley's long-awaited memoir chronicles her difficult, inspiring journey beyond the walls of Graceland and behind the elegant image the world sees.
Priscilla Presley's divorce from Elvis left his fans incredulous. How could she leave the man every woman wanted? From the outside, life in Elvis's mansion looked glamorous and enviable, and in many respects, it was. But inside, her husband was constantly surrounded by a male entourage while at the gates, lines of beautiful women waited hopefully for an audience with the King. Since she was seventeen years old, throughout her decade with Elvis it became painfully apparent that she had no idea who she was outside of his world. The only way to find herself was to leave and seek a new life of her own -for herself and for her daughter.
Softly, As I Leave You, is the deeply personal story of what Priscilla lost and what she found when she walked away from the man she loved. Despite the legal separation, their love for one another transformed into a touching and tender dynamic that endured until Elvis's untimely death four years later. Shattered by Elvis's passing, she had to reinvent herself a second time as the single mother of a talented, often headstrong daughter who never really recovered from her father's death, enriched further by the birth of her second child. She gradually found her footing as a businesswoman, actress, designer, and legislative advocate, transforming Graceland into an international destination and helped guide the development of Elvis Presley Enterprises. But the unexpected, tragic loss of three immediate family members years later brought Priscilla to her knees. She shares her journey with a quiet dignity that will comfort and reassure anyone who has suffered-and survived-seemingly unbearable loss.
A passionate, compassionate, and inspiring story of finding one's place in the world, Softly, As I Leave You is a sweet Southern melody that will take the reader with Priscilla on her long road home.
