DAKOTA-UWE'S LITTLE ONE – My Childhood in St. Pauli

  • The story of an unusual childhood in Hamburg's night out district: among artists, gamblers and crooks.
  • For readers who enjoyed Michel Ruge and Daniel Schmidt. 

Young "Charly" notices at an early age that his home is different from that of his classmates. His father, called Dakota-Uwe, is the right-hand man of the King of St. Pauli – Wilfried Schulz. A rough diamond and yet a loving father. A social climber who fails in the end.

The book tells the story of a childhood in this scene in the seventies, the so-called ‘golden age’ of St. Pauli; of encounters with light, half and dark underworld celebrities, including Uwe Seeler, Günter Netzer, Horst Frank, Jürgen Roland and Paul Kuhn, and neighbourhood celebrities such as the "Prince of Homburg", Ringo Klemm, Stefan Henschel and "Handsome Klaus" Barkowsky. A childhood that is the opposite of normal.
