May We Borrow Your Husband? and Other Comedies of the Sexual Life is a collection of short stories by British writer Graham Greene, first published in 1967.[1] As the title suggests, this collection of twelve stories belongs to what Greene himself often described as entertainments.[2] The stories are quite diverse, ranging as they do in gender, location and era and in genre, from farce to melodrama to tragedy and occasionally all of those genres at once.[3]
