  High Expectations I have fond memories of reading this story as a child, and coupled with the rave reviews of the movie release, I was expecting quite a lot from this short story. Too much, perhaps. I'll have to read it again in the future with a more rational, toned down approach to see how I really feel about it. I posted this on 18 February 2010

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - High Expectations

I have fond memories of reading this story as a child, and coupled with the rave reviews of the movie release, I was expecting quite a lot from this short story. Too much, perhaps. I'll have to read it again in the future with a more rational, toned down approach to see how I really feel about it.
