He was a real estate titan with no diplomatic credentials—and yet, he reshaped the Middle East.

Paper Towers and Peace Talks: The Steven Witkoff Strategy is the electrifying true story of how one man transformed global diplomacy using nothing but business savvy, Trump-era access, and a flair for negotiation. In a political world unmoored from tradition, Steven Witkoff emerged as an unlikely but powerful force—brokering ceasefires, influencing Gulf state strategies, and bringing private capital into the heart of international peace efforts.

From the streets of the Bronx to Manhattan skyscrapers, Witkoff's journey to global diplomacy was anything but conventional. But when Donald Trump elevated loyalty over legacy, Witkoff was granted extraordinary influence in some of the world's most volatile arenas. Gaza, Iran, Qatar, Ukraine—these weren't real estate markets, but conflict zones. And yet, he approached them with the same deal-making intensity that built his empire.

This book reveals how Witkoff:

  • Negotiated backchannel truces in Gaza with development incentives rather than political pressure.
  • Approached Iranian diplomacy like a phased investment package, sidestepping decades of entrenched hostility.
  • Redefined America's Middle East presence by collaborating with sovereign wealth funds and private interests.
  • Operated in the shadows of official diplomacy—often faster, riskier, and more impactful.
  • Through gripping chapters, geopolitical analysis, and character-driven storytelling, Paper Towers and Peace Talks unveils a new model of diplomacy—transactional, improvisational, and deeply personal. It asks hard questions about legitimacy, power, and the future of negotiation itself: Can a man with no formal title truly change the world stage?

    For readers who crave insight into the collision of politics, business, and power, this is a must-read. More than a biography, it's a front-row seat to a diplomatic revolution that could shape the 21st century.

    Perfect for readers of political nonfiction, international relations, Middle East history, and modern power narratives. Whether you're fascinated by Trump-era diplomacy or curious about the rise of nontraditional influencers in world affairs, this book is a compelling journey into the future of statecraft.
