I'm kinda trying to read around Being and Time rather than through it. It's a big fat domain squatting via a perversely unpleasantly articulated body of roughly right thoughts. Arendt's work, which appears to be 50% a gloss on Heidegger, 50% her own, is much more user friendly

I think in order of decreasing ease of accessibility, the works to consume to understand the basic stance of Being and Time are: Doctor Who (especially David Tennant) Ursula Le Guin's books Hannah Arendt's Human Condition Heidegger

Virginia Woolf is somewhere in there, but I think she's more a fork off Bergson than Heidegger

We have a generation of scholars and enthusiasts who have boiled his content down to something understandable. If you are not reading it German, what is the point anyway?

I like heidegger probably because I know his work through a reading of Origin of the Work of Art, plus a number of secondary sources about him — worked for me as a backdoor into his big ideas
