Memoirs of a Geisha

I would give this 3.5 stars if that was an option. I can see how the allure of an unkown (to many in the west) culture would be a draw for this book and make it a classic/bestseller. I could tell it was not actually memoir and was written by a man versus written by a woman who lived that life. I did get a bit bored by the end and was ready for the book to be finished. I would still recommend for anyone looking for an enduring book with the caveat to not take this as an actual memoir.
