TWIST: Building Empathy Through Literature with Colum McCann

Don’t miss this wide-ranging conversation with award-winning Irish novelist, Colum McCann, whose work as co-founder of the empathy-building not-for-profit Narrative 4 has built bridges between fractured communities in Connecticut, New York, Illinois, Kentucky, Ireland, Haiti, Israel, South Africa, Mexico and Rwanda. The conversation will also discuss his masterwork of empathy, Apeirogon, and his latest novel, Twist, of which Salman Rushdie remarked, “The spirit of Joseph Conrad hovers over the text, but here the heart of darkness lies at the bottom of the ocean.”
