The holidays are winding down, and suddenly all your hustle and bustle (shopping, parties, family functions) will soon come to a grinding halt. How will you ever fill all your newfound free time? Well, you could fill 2 hours and 16 minutes by watching the newly released movie, Memoirs of a Geisha, which is cinematic brilliance. But why not extend your pleasure by reading the book, which contains levels of depth and nuance that the movie simply cannot touch? And despite the visual grandeur of the movie, the book captures the importance of kimono in Japanese culture even more vividly. Available from Amazon for $10.17 (or $7.99 for mass market paperback).
