The Man Who Loved Funerals is the story of Charlie, a homeless man who reads the obituaries each day and chooses a funeral to attend. He makes friends with the dead because he finds them dependable.
One day at a funeral Charlie meets Lisa, an attractive, exciting woman who tells him she is dying of cancer and invites him to her funeral. They fall in love and Charlie teaches her to accept death while she teaches him to live. Lisa dies. And just as a Zen master chops wood and carries water until he reaches enlightenment and then carries water and chops wood, Charlie returns to his daily funeral now celebrating life.
