Baldwin Boettcher Branch -- Evening Book Club

Submitted by Elise S. [1] on Thu, 02/09/2012 - 4:05pm

Short Stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald [2]Title to be discussed: F. Scott Fitzgerald's  [3]The Curious Case of Benjamin Button [4](and any other Fitzgerald stories you want to read!) Time of meeting: Monday, March 5, at 6:30 pm. Summary: In his short story, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Fitzgerald provides a humorous and touching journey that reveals what it's like to be born old and age in reverse. First published in Collier's [5] magazine in 1922, this classic story affirms Fitzgerald's place in American literature as the most enduring chronicler of the Jazz Age and of the excesses of his generation.
