Michelle Yeoh, Ziyi Zhang, Suzuka Ohgo, Ken Watanabe and Li Gong play in this amazing movie about a young girl brought up in a geisha house.

I would never have picked up this book on my own, but a friend highly recommended it.  That was about 5 years ago.  Since then I have read it twice a year.  It is a phenominal book and extremely well written.  You feel like you are experiencing her life, first hand.  A must!
