Philip Weinstein taught at Swarthmore College for many years before retiring to Martha’s Vineyard, where he continues both to teach and to write. After nine books of professional literary criticism, he determined to write about life, not just literature, and for an audience of general readers, not experts. The result is “Soul-Error,” a book of personal essays that are never just personal. Inspired by Montaigne’s use of the phrase “soul-error” for our stubborn insistence on reading both our world and ourselves wrong, his new book explores the comedy of revision that besets our ongoing lives in space and time.
