This book is a lovely piece of writing told about of a geisha life since her childhood until she grew up. I actually don't care if sometimes it sounds like prostitute or it sounds awkward, this book did not pack full of action and the romance is peculiar (between a young girl and an old man), but it still aroused my emotion. I could feel the sadness when it is meant to be sad, and the feeling of happy when it is meant to be happy. It just felt like a sweet piece of food, even if it is not healthy, it still made your mouth felt extremely desired. Overall, it is enjoyable.
