Negative Positive
Title: Breathtaking with lucid details
Review: Golden's "Memoirs of a Geisha" is one of the best contemporary books I have read in a long time. It tells the story of a popular geisha during the early 20th century. While the end is lacking and disappointing, what precedes it is fascinating. Golden delves into the culture of Japan and how geisha fit into it. He writes the story richly and convincingly, a most excellent read.
