Bookroo's summary
In 1929, young Chiyo is sold to a geisha house in Kyoto's Gion district. As she transforms into Sayuri, she must master the art of being a geisha amidst rivalries and war. With her unique blue-grey eyes, Sayuri captivates and survives in a world of beauty and deception. Will she find freedom or remain ensnared in the life she never chose? Her journey through the complexities of love, ambition, and survival unfolds in a tale as intricate as the kimono she wears.
