The vivacious Natasha Vargas-Cooper’s book Mad Men Unbuttoned was released today, just in time for the start of the show’s fourth season. The book is a product of Natasha’s meticulously detailed and lovingly researched blog Mad Men Footnotes (which casual viewers to hardcore fans of Mad Men should be following.) Some reviews for the book:
“A dazzling pop-culture history of the 1960s. [Natasha Vargas-Cooper’s] zeal for detail is unparalleled. This is an opinionated, sexy history book for those who hate studying.” (Penthouse )
“[Vargas-Cooper] focuses on advertising, design, film, literature, politics, sex, style and the workplace in order to probe ‘the most dramatic cultural shift in the 20th century’…the definitive companion book for the series.” (Publishers Weekly )
“Natasha-Vargas Cooper nails the 1960s and the ad industry during this fascinating era. A good, fast, joyful read.” (Nina DiSesa, Chairman, McCann New York )Go on now! Get yourself a copy then pour yourself an Old Fashioned, light up a smoke and enjoy!
