An example of a typical example and subtype of problem novel is Go Ask Alice by Anonymous (pseudonym of Beatrice Sparks) published in 1971. Go Ask Alice is the first person to meet a diary as a girl who experienced growth. A lot of questions. To solve her problem, the protagonist began trying drugs. Examples of contemporary problem novels are Laurie Halse Anderson 's speech, Ellen Hopkins' crank, Stephen Chbosky' s The Wallflower of Wallflower.

For adult readers, in fact, Go Ask Alice is not a "real diary" but a fictitious prank written by the Mormon Youth Counselor Beatrice Sparks. "A real diary") A boy who died while participating in Satanism. Nancy (a genuine diary of an anonymous girl who was raped by the date and died of being infected with AIDS). This year is 1999. I am a sixth grader a few weeks away from age 12, I mistakenly brought only books - the book is, of course, Go Ask Alice - a boat of two weeks father and daughter to the Galapagos Islands. Imagine a ship's lump: Just crown on my father, probably on the porthole, and go to Alice. Prose is not difficult even for the sixth grade standard, and I have read it to the end in just a few hours. I stared at the last page for a while ("Conclusion: After deciding that she will not write a diary for three weeks, the subject of this book has died."

Go Ask Alice was originally advertised in nonfiction categories and was published under the signature of "Anonymous". But shortly after publication, psychologist Beatrice Sparks began to present himself as a book editor in front of the media. The name of the memoir has never been disclosed in the book. Alice is not the name of the hero. A journalist is staying in Coos Bay, Oregon, a girl named Alice. She was an addict, and the author of the diary met easily on the street. A commentator often calls the diary author for "Alice" or for convenience. In the ABC movie "Go Ask Alice" airing on January 24, 1973, the hero was named Alice.
