''Memoirs of a Geisha'' by Arthur Golden, published in 1997, is the fictional true confessions of one of Japan's most celebrated geisha (Mineko Iwasaki).
''Geisha have their roots in female entertainers such as the Saburuko of the 7th century and the Shirabyoshi, who emerged around the early 13th century. They would perform for the nobility and some even became concubines to the emperor... But like their male counterpart the [[samurai]], the geisha and her world continue to fascinate people around the world as part of their image of a mysterious and timeless Japan.'' <ref>[http://www.japan-zone.com/culture/geisha.shtml Geisha]</ref>
