Night Animals (Beginners)

Night Animals (Beginners)

by Susan Meredith (Author)

Synopsis

In 1941 Simone Weil was introduced to Father Jean-Marie Perrin, a priest of the Dominican order whose friendship became one of the most significant influences on her spiritual development. It was for Father Perrin that she wrote her spiritual autobiography, contained in Waiting for God, and to him that she later wrote Letter to a Priest. When Weil requested work as a field hand, Perrin sent her to Gustave Thibon, a farmer and Christian philosopher. From 1941-2, Weil stayed with the Thibon family, working in the fields by day while writing by night the notebooks which posthumously became Gravity and Grace and other seminal works.
