THE KINGSNAKE IN THE SUN

BY JOHN DE HERRERA

"We’re not even allowed to talk about the truth, really....” So opens the rambling narrative of The Kingsnake in the Sun. Every generation has its Huckleberry Finn, and its Catcher in the Rye. In Jack Gaines, southern California surfer, we find a protagonist for a new generation to voice its concerns in this coming-of-age story—the latest in a long and rich literary genre of first-person narratives. Interweaving the mundane and the profound, the narrator explores the multiple tracks of youth journeying to find itself.

HAMLET | MACBETH TRANSLATIONS

BY JOHN DE HERRERA

Hamlet and Macbeth are two of the mightiest pieces of drama our civilization has to offer. For four hundred years human beings—from kings and queens to the great minds of law, science, and the arts—have discussed these plays late into the night, yet few today understand them in the English of the time they were written. These new translations by Alipes Press bring modern readers past the difficulties of Shakespeare’s language and into the company of all who have pondered these stories and their deep insights into the human condition.
