Her Fated Place is a poem in four chapters telling the story of a young woman from the West of Ireland who makes her way from domestic service on an Irish landed estate to the sophistication of post-World War II Rome and its expatriate community via the London Blitz. Along the way she is exposed to the prevailing debates of the times, on religious sectarianism and piety, fascism, communism and tyranny, post-war guilt and triumphalism, all the while keeping her own counsel and coming to a surprising but not unexpected conclusion of her own in the end.
