Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden (2005, Paperback, Reissue)

Memoirs of a Geisha is a great book. The imagery in this book is outstanding. Each time I pick up this book to read it, I feel like I'm watching a movie that I pause each time I put it down.
The book is much better than the movie, although the movie is good. I purchased this book prior to the movie coming out and was very dissapointed with the lack of details of the movie. I gave my original book away and had to by another which I am reading for the second time now. Going back I'm picking up things that I did not recall picking up the first time. I wish the book never stopped. It is my all time favorite.
