Curious Case of Benjamin Button

While Fitzgerald is best known for his novels, he spent a great deal of his professional life writing short stories -- a key source of income. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which was first published in Collier''s in 1921, is one of his most clever. Benjamin Button is born an old man and mysteriously begins aging backward. The story was adapted for the big screen in a 2008 production that starred Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett.
