The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a witty and fantastical satire about aging, authored by the renowned F. Scott Fitzgerald. This strange and haunting story embodies the sharp social insight that has made Fitzgerald one of the great voices in the history of American literature.

In 1860, Benjamin Button is born an old man and mysteriously begins aging backward. At the beginning of his life, he is withered and worn, but as he continues to grow younger, he embraces life. He goes to war, runs a business, falls in love, has children, goes to college and prep school, and, as his mind begins to devolve, he attends kindergarten and eventually returns to the care of his nurse.

This imaginative tale challenges our perceptions of time and age, offering a unique perspective on the human experience.
