Sometimes hope can be pointless, a glimmering mirage in a desert of darkness. Sometimes it can be a mean hoax, an unreachable carrot at the end of a long cruel stick. But sometimes-like for Charles Schwarz, a Jewish boy separated from his parents and hiding from Nazis in war-torn Europe-hope is absolutely all that’s left.In The Quiet Strength of Resilience, Ron Schwarz chronicles his late father’s journey: from his boyhood in pre-war Germany amid a rising wave of Nazi antisemitism to the teenage years spent in constant hiding, moving constantly to avoid the fate of so many millions of his fellow Jews at the hands of the Nazis, to the post-war reunion with his family, finally finding happiness and success in America. Drawing on research spanning thousands of pages from archives all around Europe, along with hours of interviews with his father, Schwarz paints a compelling picture of resilience and endurance in the face of the greatest adversity while providing us a glimpse into the darkest days of world history. Through a child’s eyes.
