As Sayuri ages from a 9-year-old peasant girl to a popular geisha in her late 20s, Davis directs her voice gently away from curious youth to a tone that reflects Sayuri's uphill life. Davis reads the abbreviated story of Sayuri with an authentic-sounding Japanese accent-one mixed with a magical combination of Asian reserve and theatrical energy. But dismay quickly gives way to mounting pleasure as Elaina Erika Davis (Contact, As the World Turns) begins her delicate rendering of geisha culture in the years before the second world war.
