A friend recommended GEISHA, A LIFE to me, and shared the history of how it came into being. Forever fascinated by Asian culture and literature, it took very little to convince me to read it. I personally loved reading about Ms. Iwasaki's life, and gaining an extremely detailed and vivid insight into the true world of being a geisha. It has only further cemented my desire to travel to Japan one day, and has helped me gain a whole new appreciation and respect for the beautiful traditions of Kyoto and Japan.
