GEISHA, A LIFE
by Mineko Iwasaki
When Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden was published in 1997, it quickly became the year’s must-read and the 2005 film adaptation of the same name thrust Kyoto and its stunning scenery into the spotlight. Part memoir, part history, the book sheds light on a fascinating part of Japanese culture that has historically remained in the dark.
