Canarium is an occasional anthology of new writing. The first issue, Canarium 1, was published in early 2008, in response to a reading and panel (The Poet in the World) at the University of Michigan, sponsored by the University of Michigan’s Institute for the Humanities, the International Institute, Arts on Earth, the MFA in Creative Writing Program, and Rackham Graduate School. Two of Canarium’s editors, Joshua Edwards and Nick Twemlow, have co-edited an independent occasional journal, The Canary, with Anthony Robinson since 2002.

We are will be adding free PDF downloads of The Canary here soon, but in the meanwhile, please enjoy Canarium 1, which features Arda Collins, Takashi Hiraide, Sawako Nakayasu, Ed Roberson, Alan Gilbert, Suzanne Dopelt, Cole Swensen, Jibade Khalil-Huffman, Suzanne Buffam, Betsy Andrews, Erica Bernheim, Wayne Koestenbaum, Andy Carter, Eula Biss, Philip Jenks, Simone Muench, and Dunya Mikhail.
