ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden tells the story of Nitta Sayuri, a fisherman's daughter who becomes a renowned geisha in Kyoto. The narrative follows her journey from her childhood in a small village to her training and life in the geisha district, called Gion. The story delves into the complex social dynamics, traditions, and challenges faced by women in this world. It explores themes of identity, love, longing, resilience and the pursuit of personal dreams against societal expectations. The narrative is presented as a memoir dictated by Sayuri to a historian friend, offering a unique perspective on the geisha world and the life of a remarkable woman.
