Special Bulgarian edition Eight and a half million people living under a Communist regime. That is one description of the Bulgarian people. Another might be, simply, eight and a half million people. Not everyone is a political animal - there are so many. on both sides of what used to be called the Iron Curtain, who work. love, laugh, and suffer without reference to the systems which form their conditions. In June MOLLIE LEE spent twelve crowded days in Bulgaria, talking to everyone she could meet. She covered hundreds of miles on roads skirted by vineyards, mountain peaks. wild flowers of an unparalleled beauty, cherry trees in full fruit. Today she introduces some of the recordings she made and impressions she gathered there. richard LEECH reads Rodney Stone by SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE
