À propos de cet audio

 Nitta Sayuri tells us in a voice at once haunting and startlingly immediate of her life as a geisha. Her story 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 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.

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.

Amazing, couldn't stop listening

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.

An incredible story, narrator not ideal.

This was a beautiful distraction for someone never having travelled to Japan. Loved rich descriptions.

I used to love the movie but now that I have listened to the book it doesn’t even compare. The book is so much better. I can’t believe how much they left out.

Book VS movie.
