Join internationally renowned author Neil Gaiman, pioneering scholar and translator Emily Wilson, and acclaimed writer and translator Maria Dahvana Headley at the Books That Live event, marking the centenary of the W. W. Norton Publishing Company. This special conversation, moderated by Headley, is part of The Cooper Union’s Gardiner Foundation Great Hall Forum series and takes place at The Great Hall at The Cooper Union in New York City. The event celebrates the legacy of W. W. Norton & Company, Inc., the nation’s largest independent book publisher. Norton's origins can be traced back to The Cooper Union’s Great Hall, where the founders, William Warder Norton and Mary Dows Herter Norton, made the decision to publish lectures by leading intellectuals. Tonight's program embodies the spirit that inspired the Nortons, showcasing books that exemplify the firm’s motto, Books That Live: timeless myths and epics from preeminent storytellers and translators. The event also marks the release of Emily Wilson's highly anticipated translation of Homer’s Iliad and includes a special limited-edition hardcover of Neil Gaiman's acclaimed Norse Mythology. Signed copies of both books, as well as Maria Dahvana Headley’s Beowulf, will be available for purchase at the event by The Strand. Remember that registration is required for this free event, and admission is on a first-come-first-served basis, even with an RSVP.
