Geisha: A Life by Mineko Iwasaki
4.0

Such a fascinating, transportive journey through traditional Japanese culture — incredibly different from the US. Captivated by Mineko’s life, thought process, and perspective. Read this very slowly as the writing felt hard to stick with at times, probably due to the translation into English. Funny to read her stories of meeting Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth given current events
