Unmask Alice [OverDrive] : LSD, Satanic Panic, and the Imposter Behind the World's Most Notorious Diaries. BenBella Books, 2022. Format: OverDrive OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, Filesize: 270MB. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Listen, Filesize: 270MB. Biography & Autobiography. True Crime. Nonfiction. HTML:Two teens. Two diaries. Two social panics. One incredible fraud.   In 1971, Go Ask Alice reinvented the young adult genre with a blistering portrayal of sex, psychosis, and teenage self-destruction. The supposed diary of a middle-class addict, Go Ask Alice terrified adults and cemented LSD's fearsome reputation, fueling support for the War on Drugs. Five million copies later, Go Ask Alice remains a divisive bestseller, outraging censors and earning new fans, all of them drawn by the book's mythic premise: A Real Diary, by Anonymous.   But Alice was only the beginning.   In 1979, another diary rattled the culture, setting the stage for a national meltdown. The posthumous memoir of an alleged teenage Satanist, Jay's Journal merged with a frightening new crisis—adolescent suicide—to create a literal witch hunt, shattering countless lives and poisoning whole communities.   In reality, Go Ask Alice and Jay's Journal came from the same dark place: a serial con artist who betrayed a grieving family, stole a dead boy's memory, and lied her way to the National Book Awards.   Unmask Alice: LSD, Satanic Panic, and the Imposter Behind the World's Most Notorious Diaries is a true story of contagious deception. It stretches from Hollywood to Quantico, and passes through a tiny patch of Utah nicknamed "the fraud capital of America." It's the story of a doomed romance and a vengeful celebrity. Of a lazy press and a public mob. Of two suicidal teenagers, and their exploitation by a literary vampire.   Unmask Alice . . . where truth is stranger than nonfiction.  . Media Type: Audiobook.
