About Us
Three Pillars Press is a new pamphlet press, based in Co Waterford, Ireland, whose mission is to publish exciting new work by emerging poets currently living in Ireland or with Irish heritage. Up to four pamphlets will be published each year.
What defines a Three Pillars Press Book is the quality of the poets and the writing. We publish new and challenging voices. Our aim is not simply to reflect what is current in the poetry world right now, but to create a new momentum. With the advent of AI, poets are going to have to seek new territories to explore, we want to be at the forefront of those explorations.
