Used book – 3096 Days, Natascha Kampusch

On March 2, 1998, young Natascha Kampusch walked to school for the first time. She was abducted on the way by Wolfgang Priklopil, an electrical engineer in his thirties. She would escape after 3096 days.

Here is the story of this terrible captivity: for ten years, she remained locked in a 5-square-meter room, mostly in the dark, and for the following six years, she was his domestic slave.

Under the yoke of violence and, above all, terrible psychological harassment from her aggressor, she managed to resist her sequestration and escape.

A disturbing and terribly moving story.

Translated from German by Olivier Mannoni and Leïla Pellissier
