Numéro Cinq

Numéro Cinq was an online international journal of arts and letters[1][2][3][4][5] founded in 2010 by the Governor-General's Award-winning Canadian novelist Douglas Glover. Numéro Cinq published a wide variety of new and established artists and writers with a bent toward the experimental, hybrid works, and work in translation as well as essays on the craft and art of writing. Its last issue appeared in August 2017.[6]

History

The magazine's name comes from Glover's short story “The Obituary Writer” (published in his collection Bad News of the Heart). The hero, based loosely on the author as a young newspaperman, harasses a neighbour by making loud noises in the night and pretending to be a member of a sinister terrorist group called Numéro Cinq.[7]

Founder and Editor, Douglas Glover

Douglas Glover, who currently lives in central Vermont, was raised on a tobacco farm in southwestern Ontario. He studied philosophy at York University then received a M.Litt. in philosophy from the University of Edinburgh. He also received an M.F.A from the University of Iowa's Iowa Writer's Workshop. He has published five collections of short stories, four novels, and two books of non-fiction. His stories have appeared in Best Canadian Stories, The Best American Short Stories, and The Oxford Book of Canadian Stories. In 2003, Glover's novel Elle won the Governor-General's Award for fiction and was a finalist for the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award. He has been a newspaper reporter, a philosophy professor, a writing professor and an editor. He is currently on faculty at the MFA in Writing program at Vermont College of Fine Arts.[8][9]
