Pros:
a sensitive and forbiden subject has been dealt from a very mature angle
Cons:
the book is not for light readers.Demands a lot of thinking and heavy readi



          

One of the most serious books on the most erotic topics-sex.The story starts on a quite a regular note like any other fiction.But as

one moves deeper the plot takes a more serious note.the subject of sex has been dealt from a very philosophical angle which i guess only a few can imbibe.

The story is about a girl called Maria and traces her journey into the discovery of the deepest truth of ilfe.It begins with her heartbroken teen age ,her quest for her dreams and how her ambition leads her into prostitution.The fact that she is well read and a prostitute by chouce itself shows the enlightment of the protagonist.Towards the middle the book sometimes becomes dreary and readers may have a tendency to quiit!!but who quits misses the most as the best thoughts come towards the end chapters in the book.

The deepest secret of life has ben unravelled in the best possible way.A must read for those who wish to know the sacredness of sex and the sanctity of those eleven minutes in life.
 
Call it erotic literature or serious philosophy its all how the reader grasps the authors point of view.

A seious note -the book is recommended for those inclined towards finding a deeper meaning of life and creation.
