Sjećanja jedne gejše

Sjećanja jedne gejše

Arthur Golden

Književna senzacija i apsolutni bestseler, ovaj vrsni prvijenac dosljedne autentičnosti i istančane liričnosti donosi nam istinitu ispovijest jedne od najpoznatijih japanskih gejši.

Obraćajući nam se s mudrošću godina i glasom koji je iznenađujuće neposredan, Nitta Sayuri priča nam priču o svojem životu gejše. Njezina ispovijest počinje 1929. u siromašnom ribarskom selu kada je kao devetogodišnju djevojčicu neobičnih plavo-sivih očiju odvode od kuće i prodaju prestižnoj kući gejši. Svjedočimo njezinoj preobrazbi dok uči o rigoroznom umijeću gejši: glazbi i plesu, kompleksnom postupku šminkanja, nošenju kimona i o frizuri toliko delikatnoj da iziskuje poseban jastuk.

U Sjećanjima jedne gejše upoznajemo svijet u kojemu je izgled sve, u kojemu se nevinost djevojke prodaje onomu tko najviše plati, a žene uči kako zavesti najmoćnije muškarce, svijet u kojemu se ljubav prezire kao iluziju.

Ovo je jedinstveno i trijumfalno djelo – u isto vrijeme romantično, erotično, napeto – i potpuno nezaboravno.
