C, p. 22. Explanation of how the work of several authors—Ignazio Silone, Mailer, Mark Twain, Henry James and Anthony Trollope—was revised in one way or another. Mitgang reports on Hershel Parker’s comparison of the &#039;&#039;Esquire&#039;&#039; version of &#039;&#039;An American Dream&#039;&#039; ([[64.2]]–[[64.9]]) with the Dial Press book version ([[65.7]]), including the original manuscripts. Parker concluded that the magazine version was superior. Mailer said, “I think the Dial version is better. The publisher preferred to print the &#039;&#039;Esquire&#039;&#039; serial, but I devoted four months to revising it for the book.” Parker’s essay was collected in his volume &#039;&#039;Flawed Texts and Verbal Icons&#039;&#039; (Evanston, Ill.: Northwestern University Press).
