One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich

Precedence between the two 1963 US editions is genuinely disputed: the Parker/Dutton edition is often cited as the first English translation, but some sources (including the Nobel literature site's listing order) place the Praeger/Hayward-Hingley edition first, dated January 1963. Treat which came first as unsettled rather than as established priority for Dutton. UK editions (Gollancz, Pall Mall) also appeared in 1963. The Russian original ran in 'Novy Mir' in November 1962. All early translations derive from the censored Soviet text; H. T. Willetts' later authorized translation works from the uncensored text.
