The Errors of Mankind: Mistaking the True Conditions for Our Well-Being is a 2025 Eric Hoffer Montaigne Medal Finalist "given to the most thought-provoking books. These are books that either illuminate, progress, or redirect thought." It is an allegory about human nature, probing into the circumstances which gives rise to its evil side as well as its redemption.
The main characters are: Will, a Vietnam veteran; Johann, a distant relative of Will's who is a German veteran of World War II; and Lena, an Auschwitz survivor. Will is still struggling to find purpose after losing his beliefs in Vietnam while Johann still expresses a strong belief in the discredited regime he once fought for. The two begin an uneasy collaboration to deconstruct their disastrous past and overcome their cultural and familial legacies but are ultimately led to redemption by Lena.
The novel progresses through four cycles of increasing self-awareness for each character as they interact with one another. Together, they reconcile their limited understanding of the world with the infinitude of the divine reason that created it.
The characters are fictional, but the historical events relayed are real; both provide the reader with a view of history and human nature that is frequently not explored.
