Although this technically remains in my library, it is now serving its purpose for crafty intentions and is therefore no longer legible. Don't hate me. If it's any consolation, it was the French edition, so it's not like anyone would have wanted to borrow it...

I know I read it, I know I enjoyed it whilst reading it - but beyond that it never really stuck in my head.

Great fictional Biopic. Makes you have a better understanding of that time period and the trials Geisha went through.

I really enjoyed reading this book. However I find some parts of it dragged a little bit. The ending however was a bit rushed.
