@inter4 'Dune' means a hill of sand on a beach or in a desert.About the sentence you have mentioned in your post, I would like to say I understand it's meaning,but can't explain it in English.English is a foreign language for me.I read the sentence and understood clearly what the writer wants to say,but don't know how to explain it in English.....So sorry.

If you post the phrases I know that there are people who will try to help you. When you make your post be sure to explain, as you have here, and put any of the phrases in quotes, like this "this is your phrase" so that it is plain you are not plagiarizing from the book.

@inter4 Means you and only you can take blame for choice you make. Yes it is very good words. Also the verb describing the edge is delicate, means a very fine line.
Anymore help to explain just ask thanks.
