SynopsisEleven Minutes is the story of Maria, a young girl from a Brazilian village, whose first innocent brushes with love leave her heartbroken. At a tender age, she becomes convinced that she will never find true love, instead believing that "love is a terrible thing that will make you suffer. . . ." A chance meeting in Rio takes her to Geneva, where she dreams of finding fame and fortune. Maria's despairing view of love is put to the test when she meets a handsome young painter. In this odyssey of self-discovery, Maria has to choose between pursuing a path of darkness--sexual pleasure for its own sake--or risking everything to find her own "inner light" and the possibility of sacred sex, sex in the context of love., "One of Coelho's strongest."-- Kirkus Reviews "The book casts a curiously sweet spell."-- Entertainment Weekly From the author of beloved international bestseller The Alchemist , a daring novel that explores the sacred nature of sex and love and invites us to confront our own prejudices and demons.

  • Wonderful Page-Turner

    I became a fan of Paulo Coelho several years ago after a friend recommended "The Alchemist". I've enjoyed so many of his novels and "Eleven Minutes" is one of my favorites.
