FREE FOR LIMITED TIME! The Curious Case of Benjamin Button by Francis Scott Fitzgerald 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." About Fitzgerald: Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 - December 21, 1940) was an American Jazz Age author of novels and short stories. He is regarded as one of the greatest twentieth century writers. Fitzgerald was of the self-styled "Lost Generation," Americans born in the 1890s who came of age during World War I. He finished four novels, left a fifth unfinished, and wrote dozens of short stories that treat themes of youth, despair, and age. ---------------------------- Your Mobile Apps Inc. has developed the outstanding ebook reader for iPhone.

Love this  By: newnew28 - Aug 29, 2009 Version: 1.0 This is the most wonderful thing to happen to books. I listen to audio books but they take away some of the enjoyment of reading. This way I can read an entire book in half the time and still feel I didn't cheat myself.
Thumbs up!!  By: Willowglimmer - 05-Sep-2009 Version: 1.0 Good app, would recommend, great story and so easy to read anywhere, anytime, especially handy when sitting with hubby waiting for the fish to bite!!!
