520    Set on the Caribbean coast of Colombia, "Waiting for a 
       hurricane," follows a girl obsessed with escaping both her
       life and her country. Emotionally detached from her family
       and disillustioned with what the future holds, the takes 
       drastic steps, seemingly oblivious to the damage she 
       causes to herself and those around her. "Sexual education"
       examines the attempts of a student to tally the strict 
       doctrine oabstinencece taught at her school with the very 
       different social norms of her social circles. The short 
       stories offer snapshots of lives in turmoil, frayed by 
       relationships, dreams of escape, family taboos and 
       rejection of, and by, society.
