In this scientific article we are talking about a contemporary adolescent novel "When the prince is late" by the Macedonian author Velko Nedelkovski. The novel is significant because it was published in 1999, at a time when Macedonian literature for adolescents began to treat some previously taboo topics more freely and openly, such as prostitution among young people, vices, murders, etc. In the article, we refer to the adolescent period and all the phenomena related to it and how the protagonists face them. All of this can help young adolescents identify with the protagonists and find the solution to their problems in books like this one.
