  1. "Croatian-born, US-resident novelist, essayist and short-story writer Josip Novakovich...Ramona Koval: So you didn’t even know, in your family, that you were Croatian? Josip Novakovich: No, we didn’t talk about it like that. And then I found out this concept, and I thought, that’s exiting. We knew that we had Hungarians and Czechs and there were Yugoslavs, but now there were more of us. So I went to my Serbian friends and said, ‘You know what? There are Serbs and Croats, and I guess I’m a Croat. What are you?’, and they all looked petrified and that was clearly the wrong thing to say..... "
