As the final days of the Second World War arrived, the skies over Vienna were shaken by countless bombs from American and British planes, and even the architectural masterpiece, St. Stephen's Cathedral, had its share of this destruction. Yet, the Austrian people were not talking about this physical devastation, but rather an invisible threat. Under the manipulative influence of the press and media, some were even lamenting, "The Turks besieged Vienna twice but could not take it; now they have besieged it for a third time." Amidst the birth pangs of the transition to democracy, following the tragic executions of Adnan Menderes, Fatin Rüştü Zorlu, and Hasan Polatkan, Efe, son of Mustafa and Ayşe—among the first Turkish guest workers to head to Europe—was born in Vienna. His mother would tell him, "You are a gift from Vienna." However, in a bitter twist of fate, after serving seventy-seven thousand customers as a taxi driver on the streets of this city, the Austrian justice system sentenced him to three years in prison with a baseless verdict. It was behind these iron bars that Efe penned this work, which recounts the turning point of his life.
Why did the Austrian people view Turks with such prejudice? Or was the invisible power of a deep lobby intentionally directing this social perception? The shocking three-year sentence handed down by Austrian justice was reduced to two years on parole, a period that served as a catalyst for many hidden truths and global schemes to come to light.
Now, Efe had nothing left to lose. Except for Turkey.
