Affairs, obsessions, ardours, fantasy, myth, legend and dream, fear, pity and violence — this magnificent collection of stories illuminates all corners of the human experience.Previously published in three volumes — May We Borrow Your Husband?, A Sense of Reality and Twenty-One Stories — these thirty-seven stories reveal Graham Greene in a range of contrasting moods, sometimes cynical and witty, sometimes searching and philosophical. Each one confirms V.S. Pritchett's statement that Greene is 'a master of storytelling'.
