Is It Righteous to Be? by Jill Robbins
In the twenty interviews collected in this volume, seventeen of which appear in English for the first time, Levinas sets forth the central features of his ethical philosophy and discusses biographical matters not available elsewhere.
"Includes the most significant biographical documentation of [Levinas] yet to appear in English, with much new information on his Jewish upbringing and influencesMore substantially, [the collection of interviews] record, better than any of his other writings, how Levinas conceived of the relation between ethics and politics." -- The Jerusalem Report
