Overview

"All That Passes is a collection of seven stories linked by the theme of death. More precisely, the stories explore the experiences and narratives that surround death, based on the understanding that the event of passing is one that everybody encounters at least once in their life. The genres vary from literary realism to speculative and weird fiction. All That Passes is an ongoing project with the purpose of drawing death as close as one can manage in life. The collection includes stories of loss and sadness, anger and hatred, humor and hope. Each story is inspired by a challenge, issued by and to myself, to explore the theme in some specific way, reflecting and twisting common narratives about death, and perhaps uncovering new ones." -- Abstract
