Eleven Minutes

Follows the journey of Maria, a young Brazilian woman, from her innocent childhood dreams of love to her experiences as a prostitute in Switzerland. The narrative explores themes of sexuality, loneliness, the search for happiness, and self-discovery, contrasting Maria's professional life with her personal quest for meaning. Interspersed within Maria's story are philosophical reflections on love, pain, and human nature, along with a Hymn to Isis and an Afterword by Paulo Coelho discussing the inspiration and themes behind the novel, connecting it to his broader body of work and the sacred nature of sex.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Eleven-Minutes-Paulo-Coelho/dp/0007166044?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=767627fcad4ca844534d2151bc4b5110&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by Podcai Studio:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
