具体描述
A literary sensation and runaway bestseller, this brilliant debut novel tells with seamless authenticity and exquisite lyricism the true confessions of one of Japan's most celebrated geisha.
Speaking to us with the wisdom of age and in a voice at once haunting and startlingly immediate, Nitta Sayuri tells the story of her life as a geisha. It begins in a poor fishing village in 1929, when, as a nine-year-old girl with unusual blue-gray eyes, she is taken from her home and sold into slavery to a renowned geisha house. We witness her transformation as she learns the rigorous arts of the geisha: dance and music; wearing kimono, elaborate makeup, and hair; pouring sake to reveal just a touch of inner wrist; competing with a jealous rival for men's solicitude and the money that goes with it.
In Memoirs of a Geisha, we enter a world where appearances are paramount; where a girl's virginity is auctioned to the highest bidder; where women are trained to beguile the most powerful men; and where love is scorned as illusion. It is a unique and triumphant work of fiction—at once romantic, erotic, suspenseful—and completely unforgettable.

读后感
逆境就像一阵狂风， 从我们手中夺走本来无法被夺走的东西， 狂风过后， 我们看到是原形毕露的自己。 我学会了让我性格里的水凝滞结冰， 唯有用这种方法停止我思潮的自然流动， 我才能忍受这等待。
评分《艺妓回忆录》最大的看点在于它的异国情调，即对日本艺妓文化的呈现。尽管有传闻说，阿瑟·高顿的描写与实际情况相去甚远，但作为一部满足读者猎奇心理的通俗读物，这些已经足够了。 而小说的故事本身就乏善可陈，它的某些桥段让我联想到了一部少女小说——《长腿叔叔》，同...
评分在我读过的为数不多的欧美小说中，《艺妓回忆录》算是最对我胃口的一本了，可能我的口味太过东方，那种细腻的、娓娓道来的叙述，浓郁的艺妓文化、东瀛风情，只言片语里都有着浓浓的东方味儿。 在一个单追求阅读快感的普通读者看来， 这本小说具有足够的可...
评分This is a beautifully written story. I like the language used by geisha. Their job is to "entertain" people, to make people feel pleasant. This is really art in everyday life however in real life people too often don't pay much attention to other people's f...
评分《一个艺妓的回忆》。 书中我印象最深的，是小百合询问真美羽是否对包养她的男爵有感情。 真美羽：“男爵同我的关系，对他来说是很方便的，对我来说是很有利的。如果我们的交往缠上了感情……那么，感情就很快滑进嫉妒，甚至忌恨。我当然经不起某个有权势的人恨我。...
