Description
"In the midst of a terrorist attack one of the attackers, a young woman, has a premonition that something is wrong, changing the course of history. Two years later, this unnamed woman invites an acclaimed writer to visit her in the criminal psychiatric clinic where she has been committed. She then shared with him an incredible story--she is a visitor from an alternate future where any so-called "anti-Swedish" citizens are forced into a horrific ghetto called The Rabbit Yard. As events begin to spiral and the writer becomes more and more implicated in this woman's tale, he comes to believe the unbelievable: she's telling the truth. With echoes of Guantánamo Bay, Abu Ghraib, the Charlie Hebdo tragedy, and anti-immigrant hysteria, this remarkably intense, beautifully wrought tale combines the ingenuity of speculative fiction with the difficulties of today's harsh political realities" -- Provided by publisher.
