Speaking to us with the wisdom of age and in a voice at once haunting and immediate, Nitta Sayuri tells the story of her life as a geisha. Sayuri's story begins in a poor fishing village in 1929, when, as a nine-year-old with unusual blue-gray eyes, she is taken from her home and sold into slavery to a renowned geisha house. It concludes with World War II when the geisha houses are forced to close and Sayuri reinvents herself and finds a rare kind of freedom on her own terms.©1997 Arthur Golden; Copyright ©1998 by Random House, Inc.

While I haven't listened to many audio books -- this one has captured me like no other. I don't really know how to express my fascination with this story -- my heart seems to ache for the life and treatment that Geisha received. It's difficult for me to understand this type of culture where young girls were treated as pure sexual pleasures -- with what seems like little or no emotional feeling for them. I never thought of myself as prudish, but it's hard for me to comprehend this manner of cold calculated behavior.

You'll love the book -- and likely not be affected as much as I was -- what a sap I can be.

This was a wonderful "read"! It is a telling statement that is relevant for today regarding the effect of poverty on women's lives. It is a fascinating story of the times which echoes into this day of children being sold into sexual slavery. The geisha of this story lived as a geisha in pre and post World War II Japan. In some way she seems to romanticize her life; however, this is understandable given that she was sold to be a geisha at an early age due to the imminent death of her mother and stepfather. I was drawn along into the story and recommend it highly. I learned a lot about the Japanese culture of the past and as mentioned above, it?s lessons are valuable today.

The unabridged version is fabulous
