Is this a novel or short story collection?[edit]

Pictures of Fidelman (the full title is Pictures of Fidelman: An Exhibition) is not a collection of short stories, but rather a 'story cycle' that is now referred to as a novel according to Bernard Malamud's daughter Jenna, in her memoir My Father Is A Book. It is also referred to as a novel by Malamud's official biographer Peter Davis. Will gather the citations and change this page when the time comes.
