North American Literature and Global Studies: Transnationalism at War
American playwright Tony Kushner's Homebody/Kabul , first performed in New York City in December 2001, yet written long before the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the United States, presciently dramatizes the geopolitical ties linking the United Kingdom, the United States, and Afghanistan.
