Histoire
In Geisha, a Life, Mineko Iwasaki tells her story, from her warm early childhood, to her intense yet privileged upbringing in the Iwasaki okiya (household), to her years as a renowned geisha, and finally, to her decision at the age of 29 to retire and marry, a move that would mirror the demise of geisha culture. Mineko brings to life the beauty and wonder of Gion Kobu, a place that "existed in a world apart, a special realm whose mission and identity depended on preserving the time-honored traditions of the past."

Thanks to the financial security and material comforts provided by their father’s prosperous rickshaw business, 21-year-old Pearl Chin and her younger sister, May, are having the time of their lives. Though both sisters wave off authority and tradition, they couldn’t be more different, but both are beautiful, modern, and carefree...until the day their father tells them he has gambled away their wealth and that in order to repay his debts, he must sell the girls as wives to suitors who have traveled from California to find Chinese brides.

Histoire
Clare and Henry have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was 36. They were married when Clare was 23 and Henry was 31. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing.

Histoire
Why we think it’s a great listen: There’s no gentle way to put this – Frank McCourt’s performance of Angela’s Ashes is just better than the Pulitzer Prize-winning book. Frank McCourt shares his sometimes heartwarming, sometimes heartbreaking story of growing up poor, Irish, and Catholic in the Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela's Ashes.

Enjoyable as the book
I have read the book many years ago and saw the movie as well. I like the narrator however the story is not as well written as I thought it was. The story is captivating until the war then it feels like someone else wrote the remaining chapters. It's still a good book overall.

Amazing, couldn't stop listening
There's so much more here than in the movie. So much more history and character motivation, and it answers questions about what happened to her afterwards. I truly enjoyed this. Other reviews said the narrator was monotone and hard to follow, and I do not agree at all. I will definitely listen to this again.

An incredible story, narrator not ideal.
Memoirs of a Geisha was a mesmerizing read, with stories rich in description and an authors voice that was both unique and telling. Unfortunately, the narrator chosen for this audiobook was monotone - basically more robotic than fluid. It was difficult to remain interested when the novel itself was captivating. #Audible1
I was able to finish the audiobook, but unfortunately I was disappointed in the overall performance.

What a beautiful story told, only to have it destroyed by the narration. I love this book but I won’t listen to it again.
