Three Rooms Press is a New York City -based small press.[1] It was founded in 1993 by Kat Georges and Peter Carlaftes[2] with a focus on poetry, but the press now publishes mainly fiction, memoir, and art.[3] Three Rooms Press's name was inspired by one of the themes in Harold Pinter's play The Homecoming.[4] The press also manages an annual international dada art and poetry journal called Maintenant, which was featured by the Brussels Poetry Fest in 2016 and 2017.[5] Issues of Maintenant have been featured and sold in museums such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York City[6] and the BelVUE Museum in Brussels.[7] Three Rooms Press books are distributed by PGW / Ingram.[8]
