In 2009 he was invited by the mayor of Naples to a reception for his book in the City Hall of Naples, where he was pronounced: "an honorary citizen of Naples." The president of Italy declared that day, "Robert Zweig Day." Robert Zweig has lectured extensively throughout the country and abroad on literature, popular culture, and European Jewry. He has received several scholarships and awards, including a Mellon Fellowship and the Phi Beta Kappa award for "Outstanding Teaching Skills" as one of the Top Ten Professors at Manhattan Community College.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Red Snow is a son's exploration of the experiences of his parents during the Holocaust and World War II. In his endeavor to understand and imagine their lives, through research, he discovers the brutality and horrors they survived and the miraculous circumstances that brought them together.It is November 10, 1938, the Zweigs, a prosperous Jewish family, are sitting down to dinner in their Breslau, Germany home. The family, including the author's father Leo are about to hear some ominous news about the future from father Heinrich. For the past two days, hordes of Nazis have been rampaging through the streets, beating Jews at random, removing them forcibly from their shops, and smashing their businesses. It is happening on the day that would come to be known as "Kristallnacht." So begins Red Snow, the true story of the Zweig family's abrupt removal from a life of security and comfort to one of uncertainty and fear. All of the Zweigs would become victims of the escalating presence of suspicion, hatred, brutality, and the likelihood of sudden-or lingering-death. Where would they be at the war's end in 1945? Who would still be alive-and at what cost? Could the survivors of this family risk the hope that they could find each other-and reunite in a world forever changed? This item is printed on demand.
