Memoirs
of a Geisha takes you on a train ride to a pre-world war 2 Japan. Its takes you
on a journey that is rare to one’s eyes. It takes you through the scope of
being a geisha who was sold at the age of 9.
This
book captures the essences of Japanese beauty via describing beautiful kimonos,
wonderful silk-wrapped gifts and distinguishable individuals.
Okinawa
was even described so vividly in this novel that I myself felt my soul was transferred
for a little while.
This
novel nourished my interest in the Japanese culture.
Now it
is time to watch the movie.
