The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button
by F. Scott Fitzgerald
The premise of this story has always been an interesting one as it follows the life of a man who ages backwards: when Benjamin is born he looks, thinks and behaves as if he is a man of 70, and from that moment on, with every year he 'ages', his physical and mental age actually reduces. Nobody understands why or how, but from the beginning until the end of Benjamin’s life, it is an unstoppable thing.
It’s definitely an interesting concept, and I found it fascinating to see all the different stages in life from this unique perspective.
This is quite a sad story that sends out a feeling of helplessness, loneliness and being misunderstood.
I do believe that it could have been possible for me to feel more connected to it had it been written with even more emotion, but it already conveyed certain emotions quite well and was surely better at it than I was initially expecting.
