The story is about a men who borns being an old men and step by step,he's growing older and looking younger.
There are so many things that change compared with the famous film:
1. The Button "baby" borns knowing how to speak
2. His parents don't leave him in the door of other family
3. The precious love story, disapears.
The third is the thing that more make me feel disappointed. The film talk about one love who jumps over all the walls that life can put them, in this book this isn't like that: the young women ends up with all and leave Benjamin going to live to Italy.
The most exiting moment in the film is when, at the end, his wife never leave him, Benjamin dies in the arms of her lover and life partner, she being a ancient and he like a baby but still in love. But this precious end of the strory disapears too in the book and Benjamin dies with a caregiver.
I don't know how can be possible that two stories that look the same finally are so different, i repeat: i hope it's because i've read a strange version and think that the real book will be better, and i'll can continue loving Benjamin's story.
