"In House of Coates, writer Brad Zellar provides insight into writer, artist and yeti, Lester B. Morrison, by exploring a single episode in Morrison's life. Lester B. Morrison is best know for his publications through Little Brown Mushroom such as Broken Manual, an underground instruction manual for men looking to escape their lives. Morrison is credited with creating Broken Manual in collaboration with Alec Soth (who may or may not merely be Morrison's hipper, better-adjusted alter ego) over the four-year period between 2006 and 2010. Brad Zellar reconstructed the story in House of Coates from the results of Morrison's MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) test, the administrating psychiatrist's notes and a shoebox containing photographs from the period in question. Together Zellar's writing and Morrison's images tell the story of Morrison's brief foray into romance, wherein Morrison came very close to beginning a new life that might have looked something like a Raymond Carver character's."--From Conveyor blog website, viewed Aug 28, 2012.
