Memoirs of a Geisha

The writing is beautiful with its use of different imageries to describe various feelings and situations. It also brings a certain humour and levity to the book.
However, the story itself was disappointing and ineffective.
I may be bringing my own morals to the story, but i felt having Sayuri fixate so much on the Chairman, such that it basically robbed her of her other traits an awful aspect of the story.
Also, I did not like the ending.
