  Amazon.com: Eleven Minutes: A Novel: Books: Paulo Coelho   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
This is the major question that underpins Paulo Coelho's new novel, Eleven Minutes, the tale of Maria, a naive young woman from Brazil who becomes a high-class prostitute in Switzerland.
What Maria learns as she explores both the darkest and the most mundane recesses of desire seems to confirm what she has believed all along, that eleven minutes of pleasure is hardly worth the effort.
However, when she meets two extraordinarily different gentlemen who take her to unexpected places within herself, the truth of these eleven minutes is challenged.

His understanding of the human condition is second to none and he has a way of making the weighty existential angst most of us go through but are chagrin to share pleasurably seductive to read.
And this isn't to say there isn't value in "Eleven Minutes" for there is. For me, the most memorable parts were when protagonist Maria explores a sado-masochistic relationship and how it seduces and calls to her, and her true love Ralf's admonitions about associating pain with love.
Eleven Minutes is an adequate and lovingly crafted treatise on one woman's journy from innocence to sexual exploration to jadedness to hope.

What has stayed with me the most, though, is 11 minutes.

Of course, people don’t begin searches knowing it will take 11 minutes (and bear in mind that’s an average, so lots of people are spending considerably more than that), so the question-negotiation notion might be a tough sell.

With the new phones and longer-lasting minutes, 7-Eleven's Speak Out Wireless service, which charges 20 cents a minute for local and long-distance calls both day and night, can compete more effectively at both the high and low ends of the wireless market.
After getting 50 minutes with the phone, subscribers have to buy additional minutes in increments of $25 for 500 minutes.
7-Eleven's flat rate of 20 cents a minute is one of the simplest price plans for prepaid wireless, but not necessarily the cheapest.

 Review On Eleven Minutes - Paulo Coelho by Bhavna -- MouthShut.com
There are very few books that actually get you involved to the extent that you start making comparisons on a emotional level with the protagonist of the novel.
So reading eleven minutes was quite a revelation - a pleasant one realising the fact that a writer was so versatile.
Eleven minutes is a story of a girl who has a normal childhood - being born in a middle class family in a small town.

This shows that Eleven Minutes Away is impressive enough in playing a style that is overrun by rich kids with expensive equipment that an indie like Deep Elm could find them.
Eleven Minutes Away is just that...eleven minutes away from hitting it big, and their work on Arson Followed Me Home indicates that there is a mature and impressive band making emo into a musician's genre, instead of a hairstylist's." - Neufutur
And like their fellow Canadian brethren, Eleven Minutes Away walks a thin line between pop and post-hardcore and the previously mentioned song is an excellent example of a band successfully pulling off such a tricky balancing act.

 CJR May/June 2005: The Struggle at 60
But for those seeking evidence that 60 Minutes has lost a bit of its punch in the post-Hewitt era, it’s not hard to find in a show that appears, at times, to have cast its lot with the quest for advertiser-attracting demographics that plagues so much of its competition.
The future of 60 Minutes depends somewhat on the longevity of its correspondents, and on the willingness of CBS News to continue exploiting their celebrity while forgiving their foibles.
One short-term solution would be for the 60 Minutes correspondents to put aside their antipathy for Dan Rather and allow him back on the show that launched him to superstar status in 1975.

 DOA - Eleven Minutes Away - Arson Followed Me Home
The resemblances to Boys Night Out benefit Eleven Minutes Away, because Make Yourself Sick is a solid collection of screamo, and this debut follows in its footsteps.
Eleven Minutes Away further avoid one-trick pony status with the last two songs, "Alias: Grace," and "Drilling Holes in His Head is Not the Answer." These songs concentrate on singing, with sparse screaming, and succeed through a cathartic tone.
This is my first exposure to Eleven Minutes Away, and it's not only a promising debut, it's one that I will play frequently.
