Japan in the 1930s. Shimamura, an aesthete from the capital, arrives at a snow-covered provincial resort. He slows down and aimlessly observes the life around him. His feelings fluctuate between two women — the geisha Komako and the silent beauty Yoko. Unspoken passion and silent longing, hidden among the snow and contemplative delight, leave the ending open — in a style characteristic of Kawabata.

Snow country is a place far from daily life, separated by mountains, where you can step off the merry-go-round of vanity and relax your mind and body. In this place, even the snow falls more slowly than in Tokyo. There, the lonely capital aesthete Shimamura meets the gentle geisha Komako — an impossible and unreachable love they both desire and avoid. In the open ending of their unspoken relationship, Yasunari Kawabata lets go of your hand—you will need to take a few steps on your own: this is the only way to get a healing dose of Literature.
