Depends on what _Dune_ means to you. Is it an epic hero's tale? The first and only readable book in a series of increasingly awkward novels? A novel of personal restraint and subtlety constrasted with overwhelming power?

You: "Okay. I'll read you _Dune_. I'll summarize the boring bits." (later, _Friday_)
