Midnight Express tells the gut-wrenching true story of a young man's incarceration and escape from a Turkish prison. In 1970, Billy Hayes was an English major who left college in search of adventures to write about, like his hero Jack London. He had a rude awakening when he was arrested at the airport in Istanbul trying to board a plane while carrying four pounds of hashish, and given a life sentence.

The Midnight Express Letters is a compelling collection of letters that Billy Hayes wrote to his family, girlfriend, and friends during his years in a Turkish prison. Here is the raw source material from which Midnight Express—the worldwide best-selling book and Academy Award-winning film--is drawn. These letters tell Billy’s story of both the events and the inner journey, in his original words, with the urgency and intimacy of the moment.

In der Silvesternacht 1930/31 begann eine Reihe von Eisenbahnanschlägen in Österreich und Deutschland, die sich zunächst als harmlose Streiche tarnten, aber sich später als gezielte Sabotageakte mit wachsender Gefährlichkeit entpuppten – bis hin zu einem Bombenanschlag mit 75 Verletzten.
