Anna Karenina. Trust me, you would know if you have marathoned them both.
I see that.
I don't know, I don't read books about cuckholdry.
My beer line
Revolutionary road
My, and I can not emphasise this enough, diary tbh
Got any kino excerpts?
Matthew Weiner has a novel but haven't read it
>50s–60s Americana

>strained romantic relationships
I also would recommend his journals. Very melancholy and (as journals should be) self-absorbed, but written beautifully.
>“Heather, The Totality”
It's a short read, but s'alright. Interesting enough that you don't feel you've wasted your time, but not really in the 'similar to MM' category.
Sterling's Gold

Your life will never be a television show, loser
The Atlas Shrugged of course
A israeli beboonking of the white supremacist ideal of the 1960's?
Atlas Shrugged is what you're looking for. Or The Fountainhead. Atlas is mentioned in the show a number of times for a reason. Cooper implies Don is like a character in her books.
Came here to say the same thing. Time period and aesthetic are spot on, and the character trait differences are incredibly similar.
americana by delillo. it's his first book, bad, but reminded me a lot of mad men
Mad Men is explicitly influenced by the short fiction John Cheever and O’Hara. Read them
Updike
How about a book by a mad man?:

Is this worth the watch? I rarely watch series
Lots of boring characters in the middle seasons but still very good overall
