Christopher Ameruoso; Grand Central Publishing Priscilla Presley and her forthcoming book, 'Softly, As I Leave You: Life after Elvis' book cover

Priscilla Presley is set to share her life story in a new memoir, "Softly, As I Leave You." Coinciding with its release, she’s heading to New Zealand for a series of speaking engagements.

Her life with Elvis Presley is a well-documented part of music history, but her memoir promises to offer an even more intimate look at her personal journey—not just as his wife, but as a person. The title itself, "Softly, As I Leave You," suggests a poignant reflection on a life defined by love and, eventually, loss and self-discovery.

These speaking engagements are a rare opportunity for fans to hear directly from Priscilla, away from the typical media interviews, and gain a deeper understanding of the life she lived both with and after the King of Rock and Roll.
