English / Wish You Were Here by Sanaz Toossi
A paired collection of two plays exploring Iranian identity, language, and the costs of departure and belonging: one centers on adult students in a 2008 English class in Karaj, where speaking a foreign tongue exposes ambition, shame, and the pull of leaving; the other traces a tight-knit circle of women from youthful optimism through revolution, war, and emigration, mapping how friendship, home, and self are remade by history’s pressures.
