You can't save the world.Tell that to Beauregard Peebles - the chump himself - a native Texan educated at Princeton, and now a medical student in Dallas. Beau, a young white man compelled by his alma mater's "Princeton in the Nation's Service" motto, makes it his obligation to understand his black, drug-dealing, adolescent friend, Tyranius Roosevelt. By providing the Roosevelts his benevolent intervention - whether they ask for it or not - Beau hopes to stop them from doing the things they do to mess up their lives. Along the way, Beau learns something about limits - others' and his own. Chump is an unsparing, obscene, and hilarious satire of race and class relations, the excess of modern health care, and the rush to non-judgment that passes for sophistication among our educated elite.
