Listen "Go Ask Alice + Fraudsters, Drugs, and Diaries"
Episode Synopsis
We’re starting this season off with a novel that was near and dear to a naive twelve-year-old Kaycee’s heart. Go Ask Alice, a book that boasted being a REAL diary from a REAL fifteen-year-old girl was published in 1971, and the journey this book took through history is quite a tale.
In this episode, we air out our frustrations on Go Ask Alice as we talk Beatrice Sparks (the so-called editor and finder of the diary), her extended universe of found diaries, and how the War on Drugs and Nixon’s 70’s America ties into it all.
Content warning: Weight talk, sexual assault, drug use, violence, graphic imagery
**Correction: Kaycee wrongly states the title of this book came from a Beatles song, but it’s actually Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit”.**
