Frankfurt: Ex-OB writes biography: A book full of embarrassments | Regional
Frankfurt – embarrassments. scandals. Accusation. deselection. If anyone can write a hymn of praise for themselves afterwards, then only Frankfurt’s ex-OB Peter Feldmann (64)!
At the presentation of his biography “Sozi. Jew. Mayor” on Friday he speaks “a look into my soul”. The book is dedicated to the daughters Hannah (11) and Züleyha (6). Particularly embarrassing: He recently testified in court that he wanted to have his second daughter aborted…
In doing so, he probably wanted to establish in the corruption proceedings that he never loved mother Zübeyde (36). And knew nothing about the excessive Awo salary plus the company car of his well-known girlfriend.
He makes the world how he likes it…
Also in his book (edition: 2000 copies): What does not fit into the self-image is made to fit.
►Youth: in the district of Bonames, high-rise settlement, 1st floor. At Feldmann’s it becomes a desolate ghetto. He even claimed, “They always gave each other the ghetto fist in Bonames.” Like gangster rappers in America. Bonames becomes Frankfurt’s Bronx in no time at all.
“Social. Jew. Lord Mayor” is the name of Feldmann’s autobiography
The love for Frankfurt, Judaism and his parents is genuine. The father had survived in exile. Son Peter was later in Israel in the socialist kibbutz. As a student he knew: “I want to save the world.” While others still read “Bravo”.
Lots of self praise, no regrets
►Heroes: He writes a lot about Frankfurt’s unique Jewish tradition, refers to Nazi hunters and Attorney General Fritz Bauer or great German politicians like Willy Brandt. He probably wants to line up there.
►Politics: 30 pages only about the first election campaign in 2012 and the victory as an underdog (“Election night was like a rush.”). Also the left Peter against the rest of the world! From the start, the CDU and Greens reportedly spoke of “that I am harming this city”.

It’s always the others’ fault
He does not shy away from swipes against ex-OB candidate and new Prime Minister Boris Rhein (“right wing”) and the media. Only they are to blame for his crash. He himself is innocent!
Feldmann says: “I can imagine writing a second book.” About himself, of course.
