Just absorbing each and every detail that golden supplied in this book astonished me and really opened my eyes. ( ![]() If you've watched the movie 1st, the movie did a very good job at keeping it to the story, but reading the book will give you more info and more depth to her story. Read this book! You will NOT be disappointed!! Could only manage a few bland, vague-for-effect chapters. Reading up on Golden's apparent misappropriation of a famous geisha's story completed the turn-off. Was time to move on. En Memorias de una geisha entramos a un mundo donde las apariencias son de suma importancia, donde la virginidad de una niña es subastada al mejor postor, donde las mujeres son entrenadas para seducir a los hombres más poderosos y donde el amor es desdeñado como una mera ilusión. Es una obra de ficción única, romántica, erótica y de suspense absolutamente inolvidable. 3.1
Golden fills the book with vivid images and subtle descriptions of the nuances of Japanese culture, and is absolutely brilliant in his description of the customs and rituals of the geisha. Through the meticulous detail the reader can fully understand the politics, rivalries, and traditions of the Japan geisha society. Mr. Golden gives us not only a richly sympathetic portrait of a woman, but also a finely observed picture of an anomalous and largely vanished world. He has made an impressive and unusual debut. Haarhuis's foreword and Golden's epilogue, the one appropriating the guise of a novel and the other taking it off, suggest an author who is of two minds when it comes to his work. It is not surprising, then, if his readers share this uncertainty. The decision to write an autobiographically styled novel rather than a nonfiction portrait is most obviously justified in terms of empathy, of allowing greater freedom to explore the geisha's inner life. Unfortunately, Sayuri's personality seems so familiar it is almost generic; she is not so much an individual as a faultless arrangement of feminine virtues. Har bearbetningenHar som instuderingsbok
