Her Fated Place
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.

Autor/in
Jean Andrews
Jean Andrews was born in the West of Ireland and has spent her adult life in the UK as a lecturer in Hispanic Studies, currently at the University of Nottingham. She has published five collections of poetry and two books of translated poetry by Hispanic authors. Her work is inflected both by her Irish upbringing and her reading and teaching of poetry in the Romance languages. It is lyrical and rooted in the everyday but also open to engagement with the larger more abstract questions, such as history and identity, that impact on all our lives.
