Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The need for this study has never been greater. More than 50 years since its appearance, Dune is only increasing in relevance, as the rise of ISIS in the Middle East has recently shown. Now Mahmoud Shelton examines a world of psychic confusion in the light of traditional knowledge, relying especially upon Frank Herbert’s specific Islam and Buddhism. He also clarifies a strange relationship between Dune , Star Wars , and the works of David Lynch. In this book, the powerful forces beneath the surface of Dune may be truly discovered at last.
