I find it such a crazy thing that I haven’t had a moment to read a book in just about forever. Every day I look through hundreds of books picking out what I think are the most interesting or exciting, and finding what I think are the best in a variety of genres. I download quite a few as well. Always excited to read a new story or discover a new author. But life has a way of wearing you out each day so when I finally am able to sit down with a good book, I fall asleep. I had made my This Summer Resolutions to exercise and eat right, but really it should be to just read at least one book from start to finish. That would probably be the healthiest thing I could do all Summer.

FREE for a limited time

Contains Active Table of Contents (HTML) and ?in the end of book include a bonus link to the free audiobook.
This story was inspired by a remark of Mark Twain’s to the effect that it was a pity that the best part of life came at the beginning and the worst part at the end. By trying the experiment upon only one man in a perfectly normal world I have scarcely given his idea a fair trial. Several weeks after completing it, I discovered an almost identical plot in Samuel Butler’s “Note-books.”
The story was published in “Collier’s” last summer and provoked this startling letter from an anonymous admirer in Cincinnati:
“Sir–
I have read the story Benjamin Button in Colliers and I wish to say that as a short story writer you would make a good lunatic I have seen many pieces of cheese in my life but of all the pieces of cheese I have ever seen you are the biggest piece. I hate to waste a piece of stationary on you but I will.”
