Flaw by Magdalena Tulli
Refugees cause a surreal disruption in a quiet suburb. A prescient allegory of extermination. A single streetcar line runs around the sleepy square of an unnamed city. One day - out of nowhere - refugees pour from the streetcar and set up camp in the square. The residents grow hostile and eventually take extreme action.
