Following a difficult pregnancy, Samantha and Aron Goldfarb move into their Detroit apartment a month early in the midst of the worst snowstorm in decades and are trapped there for four days with both sets of in-laws, a pair of movers, a pregnant dog, and a Syrian refuge family. Aron and his newly married brother-in-law, Larry Austerhouse Jr., go on a survival adventure in West Texas where they are kidnapped by Mexican smugglers to be rescued by a plan originated by Aron's wife, Austerhouse Sr., his health aid Albert, Apache Indians, Caballeros from Mexico, and the county Sherriff. Following the death of a helicopter pilot who was shot down by Albert with the assistance of Larry Austerhouse Sr., they and Samantha are put on trial for Capital Murder in Alpine, Texas, where their fate rest in the hands of speedy justice metered out by a West Texas Judge.
In the late 1980s, Holocaust literature emerged as a provocative, but poorly defined, scholarly field. The essays in this volume reflect the increasingly international and pluridisciplinary nature of this scholarship and the widening of the definition of Holocaust literature to include comic books, fiction, film, and poetry, as well as the more traditional diaries, memoirs, and journals. Ten contributors from four countries engage issues of authenticity, evangelicalism, morality, representation, personal experience, and wish-fulfillment in Holocaust literature, which have been the subject of controversies in the US, Europe, and the Middle East. Of interest to students and instructors of antisemitism, national and comparative literatures, theater, film, history, literary criticism, religion, and Holocaust studies, this book also contains an extensive bibliography with references in over twenty languages which seeks to inspire further research in an international context.
