Product Description
3,096 Days
Author: Natascha Kampusch
Format: Paperback
The remarkable and shocking true account of the kidnap of Natascha Kampusch in 1998, who shares her deeply moving story.
On 2 March 1998 ten-year-old Natascha Kampusch was snatched off the street by a stranger and bundled into a white van. When she emerged from her prison eight years later, her childhood had gone.
In 3,096 Days Natascha tells her incredible story for the first time: her difficult childhood, the day of her abduction, her imprisonment in a five-square-metre dungeon, and the mental and physical abuse she suffered from her abductor, Wolfgang Priklopil.
A story about the triumph of the human spirit, 3,096 Days describes how, in a situation of almost unbearable hopelessness, she learned how to manipulate her captor and, against inconceivable odds, she managed to escape unbroken.
'A brilliantly insightful dissection of her years in captivity' — Jon Ronson, Guardian
'An excellent book' — Kathryn Hughes, Mail on Sunday
'Remarkable - not just for Kampusch's account of her ordeal but as a testament to her indomitable spirit' — Daisy Goodwin, Sunday Times
