Upon completing The Curious Case of Benjamin Button in 1922, F. Scott Fitzgerald declared it the funniest story ever written and one of my two favorite stories. Its the strange tale of a man who is born 70 years old and mysteriously ages in reverse. This stunning graphic novel adaptation illustrates Benjamin Buttons many adventures: He falls in love, starts a family, and runs a successful business. In his later years, he goes to war and attends Harvard University. As an old man, he resembles a newborn baby and returns to the care of a nurse.Complete with Fitzgeralds original text, dazzling watercolor illustrations, and an afterword describing the storys origins and critical reception, this edition offers a fresh look at a literary masterpiece.
