La delicadeza y la sabiduría de Paulo Coelho se encuentran para crear una combinación mágica: un eBook con las ediciones en español de “El manuscrito encontrado en Accra” y “Once minutos”. Una oportunidad para descubrir la última obra del escritor brasileño junto con uno de sus clásicos más aclamados. "El manuscrito encontrado en Accra" 'No eres derrotado cuando pierdes, sino cuando desistes' 14 de julio de 1099. Mientras Jerusalén se prepara para la invasión de los cruzados, un griego conocido como el Copto convoca al pueblo a reunirse junto a él: jóvenes y viejos, hombres y mujeres. Mientras esperan juntos el ataque enemigo, la gente pregunta acerca la derrota y la soledad, la lucha, el cambio, la belleza y en cómo encontrar el propio camino. Y después, sobre el amor y la lealtad, el destino, el sexo, la elegancia, el miedo, la ansiedad, la sabiduría y, también, de lo que aguarda el futuro. ¿Qué valores quedan cuando todo ha sido destruido? "'El manuscrito encontrado en Accra' combina la magia inspiracional de 'El Alquimista' con la sinceridad de sus últimos libros." - 24 HOURS (BULGARIA) “Un libro sobrecogedoramente hermoso.” - NEDERLANDSDAGBLAD (HOLANDA) *** "Once minutos" María es de un pueblo al norte de Brasil. Todavía adolescente, viaja a Río de Janeiro, donde conoce a un empresario que le ofrece un buen trabajo en Ginebra. Allí, María sueña con encontrar fama y fortuna, pero acabará ejerciendo la prostitución. El aprendizaje que extraerá de sus duras experiencias modificará para siempre su actitud ante sí misma y ante la vida. "Once minutos" es una novela que habla del amor, esa palabra tan gastada cuya esencia es maltratada cotidianamente por las acciones humanas. Es un libro que explora la naturaleza del sexo y del amor, la intensa y difícil relación entre cuerpo y alma, y cómo alcanzar la perfecta unión entre ambos. "Once minutos" ofrece al lector una experiencia inigualable de lectura y reflexión. "Sensual… Un cuento de hadas solo para adultos." - THE WASHINGTON POST, (ESTADOS UNIDOS) "'Once minutos' se involucra con los sentimientos y se desvia de los clichés de docudrama marginales. Es una novela dura, con momentos que capturan la atención del lector con una maestria perfecta. Profundamente personal y tierna." - EL PERIÓDICO, (ESPAÑA)

The Brazilian author PAULO COELHO was born in 1947 in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Before dedicating his life completely to literature, he worked as theatre director and actor, lyricist and journalist. In 1986, PAULO COELHO did the pilgrimage to Saint James of Compostella, an experience later to be documented in his book The Pilgrimage. In the following year, COELHO published The Alchemist. Slow initial sales convinced his first publisher to drop the novel, but it went on to become one of the best selling Brazilian books of all time. Other titles include Brida (1990), The Valkyries (1992), By the river Piedra I sat Down and Wept (1994), the collection of his best columns published in the Brazilian newspaper Folha de São Paulo entitle Maktub (1994), the compilation of texts Phrases (1995), The Fifth Mountain (1996), Manual of a Warrior of Light (1997), Veronika decides to die (1998), The Devil and Miss Prym (2000), the compilation of traditional tales in Stories for parents, children and grandchildren (2001), Eleven Minutes (2003), The Zahir (2005), The Witch of Portobello (2006) and Winner Stands Alone (to be released in 2009). During the months of March, April, May and June 2006, Paulo Coelho traveled to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his pilgrimage to Saint James of Compostella in 1986. He also held surprise book signings - announced one day in advance - in some cities along the way, to have a chance to meet his readers. In ninety days of pilgrimage the author traveled around the globe and took the famous Transiberrian train that took him to Vladivostok. During this experience Paulo Coelho launched his blog Walking the Path - The Pilgrimage in order to share with his readers his impressions. Since this first blog Paulo Coelho has expanded his presence in the internet with his daily blogs in Wordpress, Myspace & Facebook. He is equally present in media sharing sites such as Youtube and Flickr, offering on a regular basis not only texts but also videos and pictures to his readers. From this intensive interest and use of the Internet sprang his bold new project: The Experimental Witch where he invites his readers to adapt to the screen his book The Witch of Portobello. Indeed Paulo Coelho is a firm believer of Internet as a new media and is the first Best-selling author to actively support online free distribution of his work.
