"F. Scott Fitzgerald y John Cheever son dos pesos pesados de la literatura americana, y "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" y "The Swimmer" sin duda sus dos relatos más representativos. La edición de Read & Listen permite adentrarnos con paso firme en las vidas de Benjamin Button, el único bebé del mundo que en vez de cumplir años los descumple, y de Neddy Merril, personaje ejemplar del lado amable del sueño americano, que un día decide cruzar a nado las piscinas del condado y su sueño poco a poco, brazada a brazada, se va convirtiendo en pesadilla."--Editor.

De wonderbaarlijke geschiedenis van Benjamin Button
Today, F. Scott Fitzgerald is known for his novels, but in his lifetime, his fame stemmed from his prolific achievement as one of America's most gifted story writers. "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," a witty and fantastical satire about aging, is one of his most memorable stories. In 1860 Benjamin Button is born an old man and mysteriously begins aging backward. At the beginning of his life he is withered and worn, but as he continues to grow younger he embraces life -- he goes to war, runs a business, falls in love, has children, goes to college and prep school, and, as his mind begins to devolve, he attends kindergarten and eventually returns to the care of his nurse. This strange and haunting story embodies the sharp social insight that has made Fitzgerald one of the great voices in the history of American literature.
The classic F. Scott Fitzgerald story follows the adventures of a man who ages backwards after being born an old man in Baltimore in 1860.

The curious case of Benjamine Button and other tales of the jazz age
Full grown with a long, smoke-coloured beard, requiring the services of a cane and fonder of cigars than warm milk, Benjamin Button is a very curious baby indeed. And, as Benjamin becomes increasingly youthful with the passing years, his family wonders why he persists in the embarrassing folly of living in reverse. In this imaginative fable of ageing and the other stories collected here--including 'The Cut-Glass Bowl' in which an ill-meant gift haunts a family's misfortunes, 'The Four Fists' where a man's life shaped by a series of punches to his face, and the revelry, mobs and anguish of 'May Day'--F. Scott Fitzgerald displays his unmatched gift as a writer of short stories.
In "The curious case of Benjamin Button" the protagonist is born an old man and ages in reverse until he becomes a baby, and then finally vanishes from earth.
