Fellow Readers, we give you the quintessential book group book; the book that (along with Oprah!) helped put book groups on the map of today’s hottest leisure trends. As most of you are only too aware, book groups have been around just a little while longer than this book, but that’s no reason not to read it! Arthur Golden’s provocative novel-disguised-as-a-biography makes for a wonderful read, and can inspire a fiery discussion on different ideas of beauty, femininity, and sexuality. And as if those weren’t reasons enough to rediscover it, the Hollywood film is coming to a multiplex near you very, very soon. Pick up this one to follow the story of one girl’s transformation from grimy daughter of a less than successful fisherman to most popular geisha ever to pour tea in the district of Gion. You think your personal grooming regime is a pain? You think your school experience was tough? You may think differently after reading Sayuri’s story.
