After his engagement falls apart, a man must deal with the flood of no-longer-necessary wedding presents. A professional eulogist takes on a living client. A woman gets a summer job as a magician's assistant, which proves less magical than she'd hoped. A man's daughter wants him to clean out her late mother's closet, but maybe those clothes can bring him solace. In \u003cem\u003eThe Price of Their Toys\u003c\/em\u003e, the men and boys (and one woman) each get a sudden, clear understanding of themselves as someone less than they had hoped to be.
