EDITOR'S NOTE.
While someone may have a ready answer for the item below, the
definitive source for Pnin questions is Gennady Barabtarlo's PHANTOM OF
FACT: A GUIDE TO NABOKOV'S PNIN. Ann Arbor: Ardis, 1989. Brain Boyd's
biography would also touch upon this.

I have just finished reading Pnin and enjoyed it very much. It is
my understanding that all but the last chapter appeared as individual
stories in the New Yorker. [the introducction said so]
My question is how was it edited (if it was) from six stories to
make it into one novel?
