Autobiography of a Geisha

Description:

The glamorous world of big-city geisha is familiar to many readers, but little has been written of the life and hardship and pain led by the hot-springs-resort geisha. Indentured to geusha houses by families in desperate poverty, deprived of freedom and identity, these young women lived in a world of sex for sale, unadorned by trappings of wealth and celebrity.
