About this audio guide
This guide to Lake Pancharevo, just outside Sofia, opens in a courtroom in April nineteen forty-five, where the People's Court sits in judgment on the city's former mayor, the engineer Ivan Ivanov. It follows the charges brought against the man people called the uncrowned king of Sofia, and the strange bargain between a new regime and the prisoner it needed. Best heard from the shore, looking out over the water.
