This novel depicts Chiyo-san of life, a little girl of nine years sold (as well as her older sister) to a man who will sell to a younger okiya (geisha house that trains);
It will go through many obstacles and will have to be stronger than his rival who wants to ruin. She eventually touver a "big sister" who form so that it will become one of the largest Japanese Geishas of the interwar period.
She will have to learn all the arts that must master a Geisha: music, song, dance, art, makeup, etc .....
It is a story of such fluidity, without moments of indecision and written with many details that make this book a masterpiece in my humble opinion.
Dive into the blue eyes of Sayuri-san.
