Twist by Colum McCann
A Novel
Anthony Fennell, an Irish journalist and playwright, is sent to report on the undersea fiber‑optic cables that carry the world’s information. His investigation brings him to the west coast of Africa and aboard a cable‑repair ship led by John Conway, a skilled engineer and freediver, intersecting with Zanele, a South African actress. As they set out to repair deep breaks, the novel quietly examines the hidden labor behind global infrastructure and the ways people try to mend personal and collective ruptures.
