This is the story of Simon Herbst, a twenty-five year old
self-described "slacker" who lives in a Boston-area house with
seven other young singles in order to cope with the region's high
rents. He enjoys his work as a video store clerk and has a
curvaceous young girlfriend who adores him. Yet Simon feels
unsettled. He is fascinated by Melanie Dvorak, a bike messenger who
lives across the hall from him. Melanie is an earthy, athletic, and
politically-minded woman whose sexual orientation is questioned by
her housemates. Over the waning years of the 1980s, Simon is
challenged by his urges, fears, and guilt. There are friends,
enemies, and lovers among the residents of 20 Fletcher Street, a
place that has survived the days of hippie communes into a new age
of political conservatism and apathy.
