Pubblicato nel 1934 dopo quasi dieci di stesure e diverse rielaborazioni, il romanzo conobbe una strana vicenda editoriale. Fitzgerald difatti, convinto di avere commesso un errore strutturale, raccontando "il vero inizio" retrospettivamente, decise di rimettere mano alla struttura del libro, riordinando gli eventi in senso cronologico sulla sua copia cartacea. Pur pubblicata nel 1948, questa versione sarebbe stata in seguito dichiarata "apocrifa", per infine ritornare alla versione del 1934.

The man who aged backwards!

This story, a whimsical "fantasy" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, first published in 1921, became (in December 2008) a major motion picture starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. This audiobook is not associated with the Hollywood movie, however; it is entirely faithful to Fitzgerald's original short story.

Here is the classic story of Benjamin Button, who is born with the physical appearance of a 70-year-old man and ages backwards through his life. Recently adapted for the film starring Brad Pitt.

Three of Fitzgerald's early short stories: "Dalyrimple Goes Wrong", "Jemina, the Mountain Girl", and "Tarquin of Cheapside". Each story is fascinating in its own way, with roots that lead to his novels. His writing, even at this early stage in his career, is like champagne. "Dalyrimple" has some of the themes Dreiser later used in An American Tragedy; "Jemina" sounds like what would happen if Mark Twain met southwestern humor; "Tarquin" is unique and better listened to than discussed.

At the urging of his darling Ms. Harmon, Talbot finds himself on a Christmas Eve mission to give away all the money in his pockets.

The wry, touching ending is filled with charity and optimism as Talbot returns home sans money, but with two new acquaintances.

A charming, heart-felt collection of Christmas stories and poems that will delight the entire family. Includes F. Scott Fitzgerald's "A Luckless Santa Claus", "A Christmas Dinner" by Charles Dickens, O. Henry's classic Christmas story "The Gift of the Magi", the hilarious "Reginald on Christmas Presents" by Saki (H.H. Munro), and a tender scene exerpted from Little Women.
