The ski jumpers : a novel / Peter Geye.

Geye, Peter, (author.).

Summary:

"The dream of ski jumping haunts Jon Bargaard as his tale unfolds. As thrilling as those soaring flights, as precarious as his family's complicated love, as tender as Jon's backward gaze while disease takes him inexorably forward, Peter Geye's gorgeous prose brings Jon and his brother to the ultimate choice: each other, or the secrets they've held tightly for so long"-- Provided by publisher.
