Every two years, I produce an extraordinarily limited run of facsimiles that offer something no other edition can: a window into how Homer's story came to life.

This exclusive collector's edition includes:

• Complete facsimile of my original first draft manuscript of Homer's Odyssey - see the story as it first emerged, with all its raw energy and original passages
• My editor's handwritten comments throughout - witness the collaborative process that shaped the New York Times bestseller read by millions!
• High-quality reproduction of an original color plate from the first edition
• Personally signed and hand-numbered letter of authenticity (1 of 15)
• Free shipping within the U.S.  (Outside the U.S., please email gwen@gwencooper.com for a price quote.)

For devoted readers and collectors, this offers an intimate look behind the curtain at the creative process - the conversations between author and editor, the passages that changed, the moments of discovery that ultimately brought Homer's remarkable spirit to the page.

After this edition sells out, it will be several years before I create another.
