Funeral Clothes is a book revolving around the idea of change. Some changes can be facilitated and sought after like those of lifestyles. While others, such as passions, philosophies and life itself can not be controlled. We can not choose when a favorite song ceases to be an intangible treasure, nor when eventually mortality asserts itself. Through a series of short stories and two essays the inevitability of change is explored along with how ultimately, only how we deal with it is ours.
