What happens next? Reading group in English

In May we're going to discuss Twist by Colum McCann. It's a modern story which feels like an old one. A contemporary tale of the sea and the people who work on it, inspired by Conrad's Heart of Darkness and maybe also by Melville's Moby Dick.

Here is some homework to teach you about the historical and technological background to the book. Enjoy!
