There’s definitely some things in this that haven’t aged well and I do have problems with the Baron. But, excluding those things it’s been a long time since I enjoyed something so much that I wanted to go out of my way to write an essay about it. I want to buy another copy of this book, annotate it and analyse everything. There’s a reason this is such a classic sci-fi and I’m honestly annoyed with myself for taking so long to read it. 

P.s. If you have trouble getting into this in the beginning Dune part one might help you understand better. I haven’t watched the original adaptation in a decade so I can’t speak for that one.
