Weil sometimes wore a monk’s robe, and almost always she kept her body swaddled in cloaks.

She was an automonastic without an order.

She taught girls philosophy, worked in an automobile factory, joined the Brigades in the Spanish Civil War; like a child she traveled with her parents in Europe, had a mystical encounter with Christ in the church of St. Francis of Assisi, wrote for politically left newspapers and trade union journals, worked in vineyards in the south of France and for the Resistance.
