Hey there!

Hey there, this is Yenn; I'll be posting some interesting information about Geisha's culture :). I create this blog as my English project, why do I choose Geisha's culture as topic? Just because of a book:

 "Memoirs of a Geisha" - Arthur Golden

It was published on 1997, there's also a movie, it came out in 2005, to be honest I didn't like the movie, I couldn't understand like 70% of it! I don't judge it; I think is already hard to compress a hold life in 660 pages, so I can't imagine how to do it in 145 minutes. Even so, the fact about not understanding a movie motivates me to read the book, and it was one of my best decisions of that year.  It is the best book I ever read, I consider it perfect, so when I finish it I felt kind of empty, so I start to look for more books and information about Geishas, Japanese culture, Asian culture and so on. So I hope you find interesting my blog, I’ll be trying to recommend books related with the topic or just dramatic novels from other cultures that are the ones I use to read, movies, articles, random facts, pictures or any interesting info that I might found any questions I’ll be trying to solve it as sun as possible because I think there’s so many people that don’t know about geishas (at least I didn’t before the book), and because is my English project.
