I absolutely love this book. It's more in-depth than any other Geisha book I've read, and because it's an actual memoir as opposed to a cleverly-done work of fiction, it really gives an idea of what life as a Geisha was like in Gion Kobu.

I have two copies of this book, so one is up for grabs. It's on reserve temporarily as I'm hoping to trade it for something else, but it may become available soon...
