I had a shower thought last night that it would be cool if Dune or some of those older classics had a modern ramake applied across the books to revamp them and update them with what we know now in terms of technology, our ability to imagine and make the style of writing more palatable to younger/new audiences.
I had a couple of friends try read the dune books and said they really struggled with the style of writing and English.
Is this a dumb thought lol
The preface to ‘This Side of Paradise’ by F Scott Fitzgerald stated that he originally submitted his manuscript with typos and grammatical errors, as well as incorrect cultural references, all with the assumption that the editor would take care of all that… but apparently not, they left a lot of it in.
So over the years F. Scott submitted revisions for the book, and I think the version you can buy today is different than the one sold back in the 20s.
