Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this insightful and revealing classic bestseller, American anthropologist Liza Dalby recounts her experiences living as a geisha in Kyoto - a must-read for anyone fascinated by Japanese culture.Liza Dalby, author of The Tale of Murasaki, is the only non-Japanese woman ever to have become a geisha. This is her unique insight into the extraordinary, closed world of the geisha, a world of grace, beauty and tradition that has long fascinated and enthralled the West. Taking us to the heart of a way of life normally hidden from the public gaze, Liza Dalby shows us the detailed reality that lies behind the bestselling Memoirs of a Geisha and opens our eyes to an ancient profession that continues to survive in today's modern Japan. In the mid-1970s, an American graduate student in anthropology joined the ranks of white-powdered geisha in Kyoto, Japan. Liza Dalby took the name Ichigiku and apprenticed in the famed Pontocho district. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
