Liza Crihfield Dalby | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

In this classic best seller, Liza Dalby, the first non-Japanese ever to have trained as a geisha, offers an insider's look at the exclusive world of female companions to the Japanese male elite. A new preface examines how geisha have been profoundly affected by the changes of the past quarter century yet - especially in Kyoto - have managed to take advantage of modern developments to maintain their social position with flair.
