Trump Tower is a work of fiction by Jeffrey Robinson, originally credited to Donald Trump, and billed as Trump's "debut novel" by the publisher. It was first published in 2011 by Vanguard Press. Trump had previously attempted to create a television series titled Trump Tower, modeled after Dallas, Dynasty, and Upstairs, Downstairs. He worked with MVP Entertainment, contracted a writer in Los Angeles, and successfully had Showtime Networks develop a television pilot. After receiving a payment for television rights to Trump Tower, he marketed the idea to Lifetime. The book by this title was developed in 2011 listing Trump, but when released in 2012 credited Robinson as sole author.The plot of the book is set within a fictional version of Trump Tower, with Trump himself appearing as a character in the work. Detailed sex acts are depicted including BDSM and the rape of a woman. An employee of the building is described having sex on the set of The Celebrity Apprentice. The plot moves from erotica to murder mystery, and the building manager is initially a suspect before later being cleared. Bill Clinton and other celebrities appear in cameo appearances.Esquire placed the work within the genre of erotic literature. A book review in the New York Post compared the storyline to the novel Fifty Shades of Grey (2011). Playground Magazine wrote that Trump Tower was itself a phallic object in the work. The Huffington Post called the book "incredibly sexist". Tango Magazine said it had high levels of sexual kinkiness. New York Magazine called it "a very very sexist novel". The Late Show with Stephen Colbert host Stephen Colbert discussed the book on his show. Source: Wikipedia (en)
