Captivating: Memoirs of a Geisha, written by Arthur Golden, is a very enjoyable novel. With a mix of love and romance, history, friendship, and culture. The setting is in Japan and the story is of a young girl who grows up training to become a geisha. The book is great and I highly recommend it to any mature audience looking for an unforgettable read. The book does start out kind of slow, but you are hooked into it by the middle of the novel. In the story, you discover a great deal of culture in Japan, the roles of women, and how women are treated by men. I would rate this novel 4 stars because of its deep insight. You really feel as if you completely understand the life of the main character and what is going on around her. You experience how life may have been during the Great Depression and how the economy affected all people. Most of all, you experience the culture of Japan and the life of a geisha.

Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden, is a historical novel with bits of romance and love mixed in. This book takes place in Japan in the early 1900’s. You really feel like you are there in the moment with Golden’s descriptive verbs. The characters in this book are great, I like that there is sort of an “evil- stepsister” relationship going on between Hatsumono and Chiyo. Granny and mother are good parent figures for in Geisha house, they are very strict but they secretly care for the Geisha’s. This book is sort of long, but a fast read. I would rate this book “good”, one of the better books I have read for school. One thing I didn’t like about the book was that it was too hard to follow, and I couldn’t get hooked from the beginning. About half way through the book, I finally caught on. After I caught on, I re-read the beginning of the book and understood everything. Another thing that made the book weird was the uncomfortable descriptions of Hatsumono sneaking around with her boyfriend. I think Memoirs of a Geisha is appropriate for a high school student, but they should be cautioned about the uncomfortable moments. It is good for a high school student because it relates to things high school students know about, for example when they talk about the depression and how it affected everyone, high schools have knowledge about many different depressions and know the reason for the change in those communities. It is an interesting book and once you understand what’s happening you will not want to put the book down. I thought this book stood out because of its descriptions and vivid verbs, also because it tells what actually happened to Geisha’s and it seems like a memoir. Overall I thought Memoirs of a Geisha was a good book, but there were some moments where the book was uncomfortable to read.

brilliant

i recently finished reading this book and i it is absolute brilliant. very beautifully told and presented especially the main character i.e. Sayuri and it is highly recommended for book lovers.

Una venda salida de los ojos

Este libro nos da otra perspectiva d lo que eran las geishas ya que con los tiempos se le ha dado una mala fama, sayuri nos cuenta su vida y lo increible es que nos lo hace vivir junto a ella, este libro es sorprendente y lo recomiendo al 100%, es mas de lo que esperaba, al final logra lo que desea, nos deja un gran mensaje.

sorprendente!!!!

este libro es lo mejor y lo recomiendo al 100%. Este libro logra meterlo a uno en la historia,es mucho mejor que la pelicula, porque es mas detallado. me fascino porque no solo nos muestra la historia de un amor prohibido si no que tambien la historia de las geishas y como ellas estan destinadas a ser lo que tienen que ser.

Wow!!! Una historia que te lleva a otro mundo

Este libro es un libro que te hace sentir que tu eres parte de la historia. Chiyo, la nina que fue vendida por su padre, crece y se convirtee en Sayuri. Una geisha que despues de ser una de las mejores y mas famosas Geisha es forsada a ser una campesina normal pos la guerra. Ella sacrifica, y suena, y vive una vida llena de dolor por no poder seguir su corazon. Pero tal vez todo lo que sufrio valera la pena
