Eleven Minutes

I'm still trying to understand what exactly this book is trying to convey, since he brings up so many things - a character study into a prostitute, who she is, and what lead her to become one, her journey of self exploration and finding love and understanding the life around her, quite a few history lessons into sex, prostitution, and female pleasure. 
I found it a little weird when the character go into explicit details about how to pleasure a woman, what was this book trying to do?

I'm also trying to understand why the book contradicts itself so much in the ending.

while talking entirely about finding love by surrendrence, and finding freedom while letting go, and literally talking about how movies always have that one moment when she's leaving and he catches her at the last moment when HE LITERALLY DOES THE EXACT SAME THING. They tie themselves to each other at the end when the book goes into such detail about why that is a bad thing.

The writing is beautiful though, and it's really making me think about things brought up in the book, and I think in that matter the book did reach me. 

I really don't know how i would rather this, but I'll settle on 4.5.
