Python and C interaction - callback function

I'm trying to make a key logger for Mac OS for one of my research projects. I have a C code which will grab keystroke and write them to a text file. (The following code I have taken out some not important stuff)

What I need to do now is just like PyHook, instead of write the data to a text file, to pass a Python callback function to the C code and make it passes back the key input to Python, so I can do necessary analysis with Python.

I have look for how to do it, but honestly I have no idea how to approach this, as I am not used to C programming or Python extensions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
