Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Without wishing to spoil the story for anyone, I was truly amazed by the simplicity yet the deep nature of this book. This is a story for anyone who wishes to never grow old or questions laws of nature.

It left me with much thought and appreciation for life and the natural progress of it.

    i was pleasantly surprised to find out that F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote the short story upon which the movie Benjamin Button was based, (they mention this in the opening credits)

    Haven’t read the short story, but I was impressed with the central plot idea. For me, based on the movie, a life is lived as it is received. The lovers crisscross paths at different junctures in their lives, one going forward toward death, the other traveling back toward birth. How fortunate that they were able to meet and love during a seeming period of stasis.
