'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 is 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 bodies to a meeting of minds or
even souls - to a place where sex itself is sacred?
This daring new novel sees Paulo Coelho at his

minds and keeping us utterly enthralled.
PAULO COELHO is one of the the most widely read authors in
the world today. Renowned for his best-loved work The
