One of the most beautiful, challenging, and profound works of philosophy. Totality and Infinity is a fundamental challenge to the history philosophy, history, and political thought. He is especially worth tarrying with if you are interested in Marx, Heidegger, or Derrida, much less influenced by Zizek or Land. David McKerracher has been studying Levinas for a long time and is far from an expert, but he has refined his ability to talk about this challenging work in a way that is more accessible and simultaneously in depth than anything else you will find on the internet.
