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, co-edited an independent occasional journal, The Canary, with Anthony Robinson from 2002 until 2007.
