The Ski Jumpers, a novel by Peter Geye

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.
