The book deals with issues surrounding sex and sexuality, such as prostitution, and sacred sex in the context of love. Initially I thought not to write about book because sex related topic is always considered as bad topic but then I thought I have to write about book (anyway it depends on individual’s perception and depends on how individual’s interpret it) . Sometimes it’s very difficult to write anything about book or content of book. Right now I am on same situation. I am talking about Eleven Minutes written by Paulo Coelho. ![]()
