25. When We Don't Quite Fit, Sojourners Magazine/January-February 1997 An introduction to jon hassler and review of several of his novels. By Patricia Horn and Mark Preece. http://www.sojo.net/magazine/index.cfm/mode/printer_friendly/action/sojourners/i

back to online version Reviews When We Don't Quite Fit Novelist Jon Hassler's rich search for community. by Patricia Horn and Mark Preece Minnesota writer Jon Hassler's novels teem with memorable characters and stories. He fills them with surprising moments of grace, humor, and generosity. "I've been told that I make good people interesting," Hassler says of his work. He does. A former small-town high school teacher and college English professor, Hassler writes of teachers and students, small towns and faculty lounges with some authority. Take Simon Shea. As Simon's Night opens, he has checked himself into the Norman Home, a rest home with a reputation for humane treatment of the elderly ("which is to say," as Simon summarizes it, "that we are neither encouraged to become senile nor encouraged not to.") He had retired to his remote cabin on the banks of the Badbattle after a distinguished career teaching English at Rookery State College, but moved to the Norman when he detected what he took to be the first signs of mental disintegration. Simon tries to accommodate himself to a life spent rehashing the past over cookies with his fellow inmates. But it's obvious he doesn't belong in a nursing home. He can't avoid injecting life into the moribund Norman, sometimes with disastrous (and comic) consequences. After reflecting on the misadventures of one particularly difficult day, Simon concludes his nightly prayer:

Support your local independent bookseller Find it in a WorldCat library Compare prices at major online bookstores Interview by Alden Mudge How is it that the author of the very funny new novel, "The Dean's List," is not yet a famous American writer? True, Jon Hassler enjoys a devoted word-of-mouth following. The soulful "Staggerford" (published, at last, in 1977, when he was 42 years old) is, Hassler admits, "a cult book among English teachers, at least around Minnesota." His seven subsequent novels are recommended by knowledgeable librarians and thoughtful booksellers all over the country. His most recent book, "Rookery Blues" received high praise. And Hassler counts First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton as one of his more famous fans. But Hassler's name sparks no flicker of recognition in the eyes of most of my well-read friends, and I wonder how that can be. It's not a question Jon Hassler feels comfortable opining about. In fact, during a recent phone interview about "The Dean's List," Hassler, an appealingly soft-spoken and apparently shy man, deflects all the large questions about themes and meaning that set lesser writers strutting in the footlights. "You know," he says, "I tell these stories. I guess there are themes there, but it's the stories that I'm interested in. Those large questions, I'm not the one to ask. I'm not sure a writer needs to understand his book entirely anyway. And I'm not sure a book is entirely finished until a reader reads it."

Good People . . . from an Author’s Life by Jon Hassler Loyola Press, 2001, 120 pages reviewed by John Rosengren One of my high school English teachers used to say he tried to find at least one good thing about every person he met. He would have been pleased with Jon Hassler. The celebrated Catholic author’s latest book started with a simple idea: to write about goodness. Good People . . . from an Author’s Life turned out to be a good idea. In this rare work of nonfiction part memoir, part essay Hassler examines goodness from various angles in parents, childhood and adult friends, even his own characters. He avoids simplistic and sweeping definitions about goodness but instead paints balanced portraits that weigh his subjects’ flaws and shortcomings against their virtues. The effect is to provide a more honest, realistic consideration of that person’s goodness. Drawing from his forty-two years spent teaching and the characters of his more than a dozen works of fiction, including The Love Hunter,A Green Journey, and North of Hope

MANUSCRIPT Reviews For: by Jon Hassler HARDCOVER EDITION With dustjacket, wood engravings by Gaylord Schanilec, 10" x 7 1/4", 120 pages ISBN 1-890434-17-5 For Minnesota novelist Jon Hassler, publication of his short stories means he's closer to fulfilling his ambition of `getting everything I wrote between covers.' Mary Ann Grossmann/ Saint Paul Pioneer Press It's been a wonderful year for Minnesota writer Jon Hassler, who celebrated his 66th birthday in March. His boyhood home in Plainview is being turned into a writers center, his Parkinson's disease isn't too inhibiting, and his first short-story collection is just off the presses from Afton Historical Society Press. Hassler is nationally known for his nine adult novels set in Minnesota, several of them best sellers. But before he sold his first book in 1976, he honed his skills by writing short fiction that never saw print. ``Nobody wanted to publish these stories then because I didn't have a name,'' Hassler says, as he watches the St. Croix River flow past the Afton Historical Society Press offices in Afton.
