Awaiting God

Awaiting God presents a comprehensive edition of Simone Weil's significant writings, including her essays "Waiting for God" and "Letter to a Priest." This volume features a fresh English translation and an insightful introduction by Weil's niece, Sylvie, which contextualizes Weil’s engagement with Jewish thought. Accompanied by a preface from Brad Jersak that guides readers on how to approach her work, this book serves as an essential entry point into Weil's complex relationship with both Roman Catholicism and Judaism.
