Beautifully written and so rich in detail it's almost dizzying at times. A wonderful book, gripping, moving, amusing and deeply human. ( ![]() En Memorias de una geisha Arthur Golden abre una ventana al misterioso mundo del erotismo en Japón, y describe con fidelidad la delicada fortaleza de la cultura de las geishas de Kioto a lo largo del siglo. Beautiful descriptions and a poignant story. Fascinating but really fizzled out at the end The life of a geisha intrigues me. This book gave me the intimate experience of what being a special woman of her time meant. A love story of all time.
Golden fills the book with vivid images and subtle descriptions of the nuances of Japanese culture, and is absolutely brilliant in his description of the customs and rituals of the geisha. Through the meticulous detail the reader can fully understand the politics, rivalries, and traditions of the Japan geisha society. Mr. Golden gives us not only a richly sympathetic portrait of a woman, but also a finely observed picture of an anomalous and largely vanished world. He has made an impressive and unusual debut. Haarhuis's foreword and Golden's epilogue, the one appropriating the guise of a novel and the other taking it off, suggest an author who is of two minds when it comes to his work. It is not surprising, then, if his readers share this uncertainty. The decision to write an autobiographically styled novel rather than a nonfiction portrait is most obviously justified in terms of empathy, of allowing greater freedom to explore the geisha's inner life. Unfortunately, Sayuri's personality seems so familiar it is almost generic; she is not so much an individual as a faultless arrangement of feminine virtues.
