The scene is set in this novel when Atherton and Jessica Scully, two of Honolulu’s elite, decide to invest in the Tropical Palace Hotel. Kimi Kai’Ika, from Nanakuli, Teri’i Fa’atua, from Tahiti, Ito Nimura, from Honolulu, and Felice Santos, from Waianae decide that the way to solve their financial problems is to become entertainers for the hotel. The result is a sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking story of young love, marital problems, and the changes brought to Hawaii in the 1930´s and 1940´s by Tourism and the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor.
Geoffrey Firmin, a former British consul, has come to Quauhnahuac, Mexico. His debilitating malaise is drinking, an activity that has overshadowed his life. On the most fateful day of the consul's life--the Day of the Dead, 1938--his wife, Yvonne, arrives in Quauhnahuac, inspired by a vision of life together away from Mexico and the circumstances that have driven their relationship to the brink of collapse. She is determined to rescue Firmin and their failing marriage, but her mission is further complicated by the presence of Hugh, the consul's half brother, and Jacques, a childhood friend. The events of this one significant day unfold against an unforgettable backdrop of a Mexico at once magical and diabolical. Under the Volcano remains one of literature's most powerful and lyrical statements on the human condition, and a brilliant portrayal of one man's constant struggle against the elemental forces that threaten to destroy him.
