During the final seconds of his life Jorge Blanco’s past appears as a spiraled succession of images on a dynamic canvas. Deluded by the conviction of a religious vocation and motivated by the desire to escape his troubled home life, Jorge migrates from Puerto Rico to Minnesota, where he joins a Benedictine monastery. Jorge’s dismay at the reality of monastic hypocrisy, however, drives him to a cynical outrage, with fatal consequences. Tropical Snow is set against the backdrop of life in the U.S. colony of Puerto Rico during the first half of the twentieth century and in the mainland in the early 1970s. Jorge’s life becomes a fluid metaphor that simultaneously reflects and becomes the history of his homeland—dreams soiled and promises betrayed—and the role that the Catholic Church played in its downfall.

Sometimes you find what you yearn for… When her dad gets a job overseas, Konatsu Amano has to leave the Tokyo life she’s always known and relocate to a small seaside town to stay with her aunt. The move also means starting a new school surrounded by complete strangers, and it’s a lot to handle for a girl who has trouble with change. But on her first day in her new town, Konatsu is instantly drawn to Koyuki, an older girl who is the sole member of the Aquarium Club. Konatsu’s introverted tendencies are hard for her to overcome, but maybe she’s found something worth coming out of her shell for? Even though life is changing for Koyuki and Konatsu, the Aquarium Club and the little salamander that brought them together will remain a special, immutable link in the days ahead. As autumn arrives and Koyuki’s graduation looms, Konatsu summons all her courage to confront one lingering doubt—must their affection end just because their stories are diverging?
