A literary sensation and runaway bestseller, this brilliant debut novel tells with seamless authenticity and exquisite lyricism the true confessions of one of Japan's most celebrated geisha.
Speaking to us with the wisdom of age and in a voice at once haunting and startlingly immediate, Nitta Sayuri tells the story of her life as a geisha. It begins in a poor fishing village in 1929, when, as a nine-year-old girl with unusual blue-gray eyes, she is taken from her home and sold into slavery to a renowned geisha house. We witness her transformation as she learns the rigorous arts of the geisha: dance and music; wearing kimono, elaborate makeup, and hair; pouring sake to reveal just a touch of inner wrist; competing with a jealous rival for men's solicitude and the money that goes with it.
In Memoirs of a Geisha, we enter a world where appearances are paramount; where a girl's virginity is auctioned to the highest bidder; where women are trained to beguile the most powerful men; and where love is scorned as illusion. It is a unique and triumphant work of fiction—at once romantic, erotic, suspenseful—and completely unforgettable.
This is a beautifully written story. I like the language used by geisha. Their job is to "entertain" people, to make people feel pleasant. This is really art in everyday life however in real life people too often don't pay much attention to other people's f...

評分每天地铁来回上班下班的几站路时间,每天几页,终于把这本书看完了。虽然这是一本可以随时停下来的书(以我的情况来看,不停下也不行,地铁站里的人流不可小觑),但是仍不失为一本情节十分吸引人的浪漫小说。 几年前,看过艺伎回忆录的电影。电影中的具体情节已经印...
評分逆境就像一阵狂风, 从我们手中夺走本来无法被夺走的东西, 狂风过后, 我们看到是原形毕露的自己。 我学会了让我性格里的水凝滞结冰, 唯有用这种方法停止我思潮的自然流动, 我才能忍受这等待。
評分讀這本書的意義在於關於日本藝妓的文化~
评分看完之後說不齣心中的那種感覺,平實的敘述卻讓我揪心那麼久,小百閤。
评分看的中文版,不知道譯文和原著差彆多大,個人很喜歡。。
评分光環圍繞下,身為女人的無奈。同是可憐女人還要互相迫害,到最後無論誰輸誰贏,都是一場空。
评分If you want to catch a glimpse of Geisha's life, this is a pretty good book. But if one wants a good novel, the plot is not so good.
