Edición en Inglés
During the early 1980's Richard Beech, a Vietnam Veteran, is on the run from mobsters due to a failed drug deal. Beech owes them money and leaves Chicago in a mad rush. He hops on an Amtrak train and hours later, while stretching his legs at a rail station stop, he notices a harismatic, young and beautiful girl. He decides to remain here in this small college town, Bearsville, Illinois and figure out how to raise the money he needs to pay off the mob and return to his life in Chicago.
In Bearsville, he meets a variety of people while becoming involved in a Lolita-style soulmate affair with Jasmine. While having lunch, he befriends the town's newspaper editor and then begins interacting with the Bearsville elite including a local motorcycle gang, college students, restaurant personnel and the town's gay beauty shop owners.
Bearsville is a mythical Illinois college town that should be compared with Carbondale, Illinois (Southern Illinois University) and Woodstock, NY . The town has been humorously nicknamed "Fats" because of all the overweight town folk. Being a college town, Beech encounters different scenarios including sex, drugs, music, booze, gourmet restaurants, religious believers and hypocrites, prostitution, and the local gay disco.
