The torture of adolescence has rarely been captured as clearly as it is in this classic diary, winner of the Christopher Award, by an anonymous, addicted teen. This powerful real-life diary of a teenager's struggle with the seductive -- often fatal -- world of drugs and addiction tells the truth about drugs in strong and authentic voice.
Lonely, awkward and under extreme pressure from her parents, the 15-year-old writer swings madly between optimism and despair. When one of her new friends spikes her drink with drugs, this diarist begins a frightening journey into darkness. The drugs take the edge off her loneliness and self-hate, but they also turn her life into a nightmare of exalting highs and excruciating (难以忍受的) lows. Although there is still some question as to whether this diary is real or fictional, there is no question that it has made a profound impact on millions of readers during the more than 25 years it has been in print.
Painfully honest, nakedly candid...An extraordinary work...a document of horrifying reality -- The New York Times.
