Kyle MacLachlan, Dune emojis, Twitter

Twitter user @lifeofkeira asked actor Kyle MacLachlan for an explanation of Dune, given his expertise having played Paul Atreides in David Lynch’s 1984 film. MacLachlan proved himself a master of emoji-plots by rendering the whole tale in the tiny pictograms, thereby cementing his position as Your Favorite Person On the Internet Right Now. I think the pepper icon for “spice” might make the whole thing.

Now the real question. Do I reread the book or will this do the trick? 

(Side note: Someone on this site needs to do a Dune Reread with the original 6 novels.)

Dune re-read would be sweet.
