TOM POW
THE VULNERABILITY OF PRECIOUS THINGS Encounters with Simone Weil
Tom Pow’s latest collection from Mariscat Press (and Molecular Press) is a powerful exploration of the life and work of the philosopher Simone Weil. The poems enagage with her ideas and writings, through a variety of styles and forms, balancing tenderness, lyricism and clarity.
Tom Pow has published three pamphlets with Mariscat, most recently Svetlena’s Dance: Triptychs (2022).

MARISCAT SAMPLER THREE
When Mariscat won the Michael Marks Poetry Publishers’ Award in 2023, we took it as an invitation to try something new. Alongside our much-loved single-author pamphlets, we began producing samplers — one pamphlet offering a first taste of three distinctive new poets.
Sampler 3 gathers compelling new work by Mark Russell, Elizabeth Chadwick Pywell and Sarah Barnsley, poets who explore memory, love and loss with clarity and wit.
