House of Coates

Publisher's description: "In House of Coates, writer Brad Zellar pieces together the story of legendary recluse Lester B. Morrison. Working from a handful of encounters and contradictory conversations, a sketchy paper trail and often confounding interviews with individuals who may or may not have been associates of Morrison - including Morrison's former collaborator Alec Soth - Zellar attempts to reconstruct one episode from Morrison's decidedly episodic life. In the winter of 2011 Zellar finally crossed paths with his evasive subject and was - with Morrison's permission - granted access to the results of an MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) test that Morrison submitted to in August of 2009 along with the administrating psychiatrist's copious notes. Finally in late December of last year Zellar received in the mail a duct taped shoebox - marked 'PERISHABLE' - containing almost two hundred photographs that Morrison termed 'disposable documents of the approximate period in question.'"

  • ""Washed up in the shadow of a refinery, Lester B. Morrison, legendary recluse, documents his life in a series of photographs taken with a disposable camera. In a landscape of off ramps, warehouses, and SRO hotels occupied by terminally lonely men, love and faith break in, quietly offering human connection and the possibility of redemption. Brad Zellar has worked as a writer and editor for daily and weekly newspapers, as well as for both regional and national magazines. He is the author of Suburban World: The Norling Photos, The 1968 Project, Conductors of the Moving World, and House of Coates.Alec Soth is a photographer whose first monograph, Sleeping by the Mississippi, was published by Steidl in 2004. Since then Soth has published over a dozen books including Niagara (2006), Dog Days, Bogotá; (2007), The Last Days of W (2008), and Broken Manual (2010). Soth's work has been exhibited at Jeu de Paume in Paris and Fotomuseum Winterthur in Switzerland. "--"
