Publisher Description

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. Now you can have this whimsical short story read to you.

"Reminded me of why I love Fitzgerald - a virtuoso painter of the Jazz Age. His short stories are unique and unpredictable, and he writes beautifully. Although a few of the stories are somewhat strangely abstract, they are mostly absorbing snapshots of lives, told with poignancy and humor. "

    " Some of the stories stick out above others, definitely some jazz era prejudice too but the story telling is good. "

    " This was a very strange little book. Since it was less than 70 pages long, it was a really quick read. I didn't see the movie but the previews looked interesting so I thought the book might be good...it was just ok. "

    " Loved this story. I read it on the Nook app on my blackberry and it was quite easy to read that way. I would have loved the characters to be fleshed out a little more, but the concept is great. Now I want to see the movie version. "

    " I liked it and didn't like it at the same time. I actually felt sad. The MC was mistreated and misunderstood the entire time and it wasn't his fault! The movie is very different from this. "
