Textual differences
The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction serialization is slightly shorter than the full novel. Most of the cuts are incidental flourishes without much effect on the story or the ideas, but one bit stands out in its absence: the paragraph in chapter 3 where Daniel, at the movie theater in Minneapolis, notices two men sharing a bathroom stall and is both shocked and intrigued.
The epigram doesn't appear in the serialization, nor in the first British hardcover from Gollancz.
