		She is attending a young man who is very ill. The image establishes the triangular relationship in the novel of Shimamura and the two women as figures passing across the snows and shadows of the winter mountains.

		Still, thanks to a vivid lead about Snow performing brilliantly out in rubber-chicken land, the ultimate message of the story was the opposite of critical.

		HOUGHTON, Mich. -- In the land of big snow, where college students jump harmlessly out of third-story dormitory windows into snow banks, and old-timers call the seasons June, July and winter, the longest season of the year sure ain't what it used to be.
		Snow that was dependable as a sunrise and last year tallied higher than 20 feet is now being rationed in the city of Houghton, which this week cancelled a downtown inner tube race--called the Yooper Luge--to save snow for the annual winter carnival, the biggest tourist attraction of the year.
		Trucks are hauling in snow from outside the city and onto the campus of Michigan Tech University, where the late January carnival is to be held.

		The author points out that, in "Snow Country" and "The Dead," there are three similarities in the way the authors used snow imagery: To describe vividly the settings, to set the mood for the gloomy and sad resolutions of the characters, and to serve as a 'memory' of their lost loves.
		The paper concludes that there is one difference: Kawabata uses snow imagery as a tool for characterizing Komako, while Joyce uses snow as a symbol for the impending deaths of Miss Kate and Julia and the death of his love for Gretta.
		"The use of snow implies coldness and darkness, which is compatible to the feelings that Shimamura and Komako felt when they met in "Snow Country." Shimamura's dissatisfaction with life and Komako's unfortunate life lead them to lead a gloomy life, intensified by the mood of the environment they are in (in the 'snow country').
