Summary

Las confesiones de Sayuri, una de las más hermosas geishas del Japón de entreguerras.

Apasionante y sorprendente, Memorias de una geisha ha batido récords de permanencia en las listas de best sellers de todo el mundo y conquistado a lectores de más de 26 idiomas.

Poco antes de su muerte, Sayuri, una anciana japonesa afincada en Nueva York, cuenta su vida a un joven amigo americano. La suya es la historia de cómo, desde una mísera infancia, llegó a convertirse en una de las geishas más famosas del Japón de entreguerras, un país donde aún resonaban los ecos feudales y donde las tradiciones ancestrales empezaban a convivir con los modos del mundo moderno.

De la mano de Sayuri entraremos en un mundo secreto dominado por las pasiones y sostenido por las apariencias, en el que la sensualidad y la belleza no pueden separarse del sometimiento: un mundo en el que las jóvenes aspirantes a geishas son duramente adiestradas en el arte de la seducción, y donde tienen que convencerse de que, para ellas, el amor no es más que un espejismo.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

De los ojos de niña a mujer

Siempre me ha cautivado la idea de que todo pasa por algo y este libro refuerza esa creencia

Fat, flat, flat performance

I had already read the book, and I was looking forward to revisiting it in audio form, so I looked for the one in Spanish (I'm a native speaker) thinking it would be a nice break for my brain. However, the narrator was TERRIBLE! Her enunciation was of course fine, but her intonation was horrendous. It sounded like someone reading a text book and making awkward pauses mid-sentence all the time. It made it very difficult to follow the narration. There were no differences in voice style between characters, and to be honest, listening felt more like a chore than anything else. Quite disappointed.
