The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

well that was an interesting short story :p !
a boy named Benjamin was born as an old man , an so he was supposed to live his life in a reverse order , he's an old man , then a young man , a kid and so on .
the story was so creepy and the Narrator did a great job that made me loose my self in it.
the story is short (well it's a short story not a novel) , at first i didn't get it , why a story like that was written in only hundred pages , then i realized that this is life , it's just a small amount of time that flies by and end so quickly .
