zasto ne govorim srpski (na srpskom)
zasto ne govorim srpski (na srpskom) is set amidst the political turmoil in Kosovo and its struggle for independence. Using the community’s complicated relationship with the Serbo-Croat language as a reflection of its ambivalence toward its history and identity, Collins records testimonies by a number of contributors – from politicians, intellectuals and public figures to ordinary people – recounting in Serbo-Croat the reasons why they no longer speak the language.
