About
Eleanor May Shank - otherwise known as Bean - is fed up with her unfaithful boyfriend, numbing job, and nagging insecurities. In a reckless move that abandons all hope of normalcy, she packs up her life in Boston and heads across the country by train. Balancing aimlessness with visits to ex-lovers, out-of-control friends, and her splintered family, she rapidly settles old scores and makes new mistakes. Until, quite unexpectedly, she discovers what she really wants and how to get it.
