"...excellent and captivating, written in a flowing style laced with sharp, and at times cynical and biting, humor—it leaves the reader wanting more. It was fascinating to read spicy, sometimes amusing, behind-the-scenes stories." —Dr. Yitzhak Kaufman

Go behind the scenes of Israeli politics with a front-row seat to history.

For over two decades, Yoram Dori was the trusted advisor and close confidant of Shimon Peres—Nobel laureate, statesman, and one of the most influential figures in Israel's history. In The Whisperer, Dori pulls back the curtain on the private conversations, quiet moments, and defining decisions that shaped a nation.

This compelling memoir is more than just a political account; it's a deeply personal journey. Through Dori's eyes, readers witness pivotal events in Israeli history—from peace negotiations to national crises—and gain a rare understanding of the man behind the headlines. Shimon Peres emerges not only as a leader but as a human being: complex, visionary, and often torn between hope and realism.

With warmth, honesty, and insight, Dori shares anecdotes that range from humorous to heartbreaking. He also reflects on his own path—from a childhood in a modest Tel Aviv neighborhood to the inner circles of power—offering a parallel story of personal growth and national transformation.

The Whisperer is a must-read for anyone interested in international relations, Middle Eastern politics, or the human side of leadership. It is a quiet, wise, and unforgettable testimony to friendship, loyalty, and the art of listening at the highest levels of international politics.
