Happy Father’s Day... enjoy the Fritzl book








HIGH Street giants WH Smith were blasted yesterday for plugging a book on cellar monster Josef Fritzl as a FATHER’S DAY gift.

Cellar ... where Fritzl kept
his daughter


Appalled shoppers could not believe their eyes when they saw it on a “Top 50 Books for Dad” display which also proclaimed “Dads Are Heroes”.
Matt James, 29, who was searching for a gift at the WH Smith branch in Lewisham, South London, said: “Are they mad? He’s probably the worst dad in the world. What he did to his children was horrible.”
The book, The Crimes of Josef Fritzl, details how the 1ncest beast kept daughter Elisabeth captive for 24 years in his dingy cellar at Amstetten, Austria.
Fritzl, now serving life, raped her constantly and she had seven children by him.
Beast ... Josef Fritzl


Three were kept prisoner with her — and he incinerated the body of a son who died three days after birth.
The book, written by journalists Stefanie Marsh and Bojan Pancevski, was promoted alongside more traditional gifts written by the likes of Dan Brown and Jeremy Clarkson.
Its cover features a grainy photo of Fritzl’s demonic stare.
Dad Ian Bennett, 44, said he would be horrified if his daughters gave him the book on Sunday.

He added: “I’d wonder what they were trying to tell me.

“What person in their right mind would want to be reminded of that monster on Father’s Day?”
