About This Item
Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall, 1971. First Edition, First Printing. Paperback. Very good. Octavo. 5.25 x 8.25 in. 159 pp. Very good in original simple lettered wrappers. Apparently an unread copy, but has light foxing to edge of text block and sunning to spine. Publisher's blurb affixed to front cover. Scarce uncorrected copy of this controversial book.
Synopsis
Go Ask Alice is a controversial 1971 book about the life of a troubled teenage girl. The book purports to be the actual diary of an anonymous teenage girl who died of a drug overdose in the late 1960s and is therefore presented as a testimony against drug use. Alice is not the protagonist's name; the actual diarist's name is never given in the book.
