    Aging redefined

    What a curious case indeed, Benjamin Button! To be born elderly and grow younger as he ages, so much difficulties and awkwardness he must have faced from moving in an opposite direction from everyone else, appearance, behaviour and interests-wise. The gloomy watercolour illustrations of this graphic novel version add to the flavour of the story 18th-century setting. I'm very curious as to how this short story will translate to a lengthy live-action film coming out during Christmas 2008.

About the Author

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) was born in St. Paul, Minnesota. Upon graduating from Princeton, he served in the Army and worked briefly in advertising. He married his wife, Zelda, in 1920, a week after his first novel, This Side of Paradise, was published. His works, considered by many to be classics, include The Great Gatsby, Tender is the Night, and the uncompleted The Last Tycoon. He died of a heart attack at the age of 44.
