Visiting Australia for the first time in 25 years, Irish writer Colum McCann weaves an intriguing story about the vanishing of a vessel's captain and the writer who tries to track him down, in this darkly epic novel about loneliness, humanity and the vulnerability of our world.  
 
Following from the success of the New York Times-bestselling and National Book Award-winning Let the Great World Spin, McCann’s latest novel Twist is a powerfully realist novel of men literally, emotionally and metaphorically at sea, that plumbs themes of connectivity and estrangement, power and protest, absence and belonging.  

Join him as he unpacks this complex and profound work of fiction with ABC Radio National’s Kate Evans.
