Most of these first editions also include bibliographies of reviews and essays. Many of the following contain a bibliography of reviews and/or critical articles. The reviews were chosen because of: (1) representative quality; (2) intrinsic interest; (3) reviewer's reputation and/or relationship with Mailer; or (4) subsequent comment by Mailer. Obviously, some reviews meet more than one criteria. The essays, which focus almost exclusively on one book and were written years or decades later, were chosen for their cogency and contextual merits. Each are divided according to work. Abbreviations that were not included in {{harvtxt|Lennon|2008a|}} or {{harvtxt|Adams|1974|}} are new to this project; these abbreviations will be used throughout. Entries that contain bibliographies are indicated by a ‡.

Bibliography

Notes

  1. Most from Lennon (2008a, pp. 518–519).
  2. ‡ indicates the entry contains a bibliography of reviews and/or critical articles.
  3. This date is often listed as 1957 or 1958 (e.g. Adams (1974, p. 1) and Lennon (1986, p. 219) list 1957), but as Lennon & Lennon (2018, p. 29) explain, the City Lights publication is followed by the 1958 "Reflections on Hipsterism", so earlier than 1959 is unlikely.
  4. Abbreviated SF in Adams (1974, p. 4, passim).
  5. According to Lennon (2008a), sometimes abbreviated as WVN.
  6. According to Lennon (2008a), sometimes abbreviated as TOT.
