The North 1033's Chris Harwood speaks with Peter Geye, the author of The Ski Jumpers, a novel published in 2022 by University of Minnesota Press. Geye talks about his own experience as a ski jumper and, in turn, both the dreams and the metaphor it creates for the story's protagonist, Jon Bargaard, who reflects on his life and memories as he deals with a terminal illness.

Minnesota Reads is produced at The North 1033 with funding provided in part by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.

Chris Harwood is The North 1033’s Production Director and (acting) Program Director, a morning/daytime host, and the host of Soul Village. He is also a musician, a music historian, an audio engineer, and an avid record collector.
