Negative Positive
Title: this book was a total offence!!
Review: Although there were geishas in Japan, there were only some who actually slept with men. This book is a total offence for Japanese women like me as some close minded ignorant western males still view Japanese women as being "geisha". Remember: 1) the author is a western MAN who depicts almost like European and Americans during imperialism. 2) Geisha whom he got many details from sued him for fabricating the truth and disgracing her name 3) He is not Japanese and didn't live in Japan long enough to know Japanese 4) the audience was not intended for Japanese but English speaking western who hardly know about Japanese
