Read the Tractatus and if it confuses you just read the later work where he offers a competing theory of language to the one put forward in the TLP. The TLP is a pretty short book. The rest of his stuff is (supposedly) written to educate children, to some degree.

Yes but start with PI and then go back to the Tractatus
