In the children's lit field, we call this YA for young adult and Contemporary Realistic Fiction, for gritty problem novels with teens.

The Chocolate War is a young adult novel written by American author Robert Cormier and first published in 1974 and adapted to film in 1988. Its gritty writing style and gravity-lending mix of fantasy and reality have made it a popular book among young adults, especially boys, for reading both inside and outside school curricula. Set at the fictional Trinity High School, the story follows protagonist Jerry Renault as he challenges the school's cruel and brutal ugly mob rule. Because of the novel's content, the concept of a high school's secret society using intimidation to enforce the cultural norms of the school, along with the protagonist's sexual ponderings and the use of Anti-Catholicism, it has been the frequent target of censors and appears at number four on the American Library Association's list of the "100 Most Frequently Challenged Books of 1990-2000".
