In Memoris of your Geisha, Nitta Sayuri tells us in a voice simultaneously haunting and startlingly immediate of her life as a geisha. Her story commences 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 even as we enter a global where appearances are paramount; where a girl's virginity is auctioned to the highest bidder; where women are trained to beguile the most effective men; and where love is scorned as illusion.
A unique and triumphant work of fiction - simultaneously romantic, erotic, suspenseful - and completely unforgettable.
