About this listen

The bestselling novel from international literary phenomenon Paulo Coelho, author of The Alchemist.

‘Love is a terrible thing that will make you suffer…’

So says Maria, a young Brazilian girl convinced from an early age that she will never find true love. A chance meeting in Rio takes her to Geneva, but the glittering life she hoped for was a fantasy. The reality – selling herself to survive – is a dehumanising grind that pushes her further away from real love, towards a fascination with pure physical pleasure.

But when her emotional barriers are tested by a handsome young painter, she must choose between the dark path she is on and risking everything to find her ‘inner light’. Can she move beyond the meeting of minds or even souls – to a place where sex itself is sacred?

A daring modern fable about the nature of love and sex.

©2004 Paulo Coelho (P)2004 HarperCollins Publishers

This is best book i have read in many years, it fills you up, energizes and gives answers. I am in love with the story and Coelho's talent to express the magic of love, desire and search for inner harmony in his unique and captivating way. The story touches, brings all of the inner hidden desires and thoughts to the surfaces and acts as a mirror by looking at which you see a reflection...

Best book in many years
