Every novel is ambitious, but some are more ambitious than others, especially when it comes to scope and timeline. Where the majority of novels focus onsmall slices of time in the lives of their characters, these five novels tell a complete life story, from birth to death (or almost).
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a short story written by F. Scott Fitzgerald and first published in Colliers Magazine on May 27, 1922. It was subsequently anthologized in his book, Tales of the Jazz Age. It tells the story of Benjamin Button, a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences.
Development rights to the story were held for years by the late Hollywood mogul Ray Stark. Stark retained those rights until his death in 2004, when they were purchased from his estate and used for an adaptation of the story as the 2008 film of the same name, directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt (in the title role) and Cate Blanchett.
