20210806 - Review: Dune

Master of the spice\ power over destruction\ ancestral spirit

#HAIKUPRAJNA - Review: Dune

Frank Herbert's "Dune" is a great example of what science-fantasy fiction can achieve as literature. "Dune" explores the metaphysics of mind through characters like the human-computer mentats and Bene Gesserit witches. With the plot device of time-become-space, every being is represented as an idea of their totality, which the various factions manipulate through cultural eugenics in order to influence (or produce mortal incarnations of) their ancestral spirits. These ideas are the best part of the book; the story and narrative are fine, too, where politics and religion are central. This science-fantasy's lack of focus on technology allows Dune's grounded philosophy to withstand the test of time.
