Natascha Kampusch Book order

In late October 2006, one of the most notable kidnapping cases concluded when Natascha Kampusch escaped after being held captive in a hidden cellar near Vienna for over eight years. Her story attracted global media attention, resulting in two autobiographies, a feature film, several documentaries, and numerous interviews within a decade. “10 Years of Freedom” explores the profound impact of such a traumatic experience on a young woman's life. It chronicles her journey from being a naive victim to navigating the complexities of the real world after years of isolation. The author addresses various themes, including her initial days of freedom and the ongoing trauma she faces. Natascha reveals her unpreparedness for public life, as she was thrust into a spotlight marked by intense and controversial media scrutiny, including speculation about Stockholm syndrome and derogatory labels like “cellar girl.” Additionally, wild conspiracy theories emerged, leading to multiple investigations. Despite these challenges, she managed to reconnect with her family and initiated several charitable projects, such as establishing a children's ward in Sri Lanka and supporting animal rights through PETA. The book has received acclaim, with notable figures praising its powerful narrative and Natascha's bravery.

This powerful true story follows Natascha Kampusch, who, held hostage in a 50-square-foot dungeon for eight years, where she was treated as a slave and forced to work for her sadistic captor, never forgot who she was--and never gave up hope of returning to the world. Original.

When she emerged eight years later, her childhood had gone. Here Natascha tells her amazing story for the first time: what exactly happened on 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.
