author is a man and he does not know what a woman feels, or so it seems from the writing.
ending is cliché, offers a few insights here and there through the protagonist, dirty bits are too vanilla..
he is confused whether to write philosophical or erotica; so he has mixed it all together....
so it is thought provoking sometimes but disappoints as a whole....
Paulo Ceolho makes a promise, but sadly does not deliver it!
