Michele W. posts on 3/2/2007 9:35:33 PM I admire the novel "Memoirs of a Geisha'. I Fell in love with the movie and then I proceeded to read the book. When I read the book I felt closer to the characters. The book was like a best friend, full of secrets. Secrets that was shared only at night with a good lamb light. The character Nobel-san took on a new life for me. I saw someone who was attentive, caring and loving despite his temper. I found his scars had disappeared and emerged a loving man. Thank you for writing this book.... I would not have traded that friend for anything.... Michele

I experienced her every emotion as close as I could, not being her....brilliant! This book is not a library rental...it is a collection....a classic.
