Abstract

In O aprendiz de feiticeiro, Carlos de Oliveira says that the desert is an ‘obsession” of modern Portugese poetry. In the same text, an equation indicates that this ‘desert” is readable even when this word is not printed on paper. It is proposed, therefore, the concept of desert function, and it is observed, in this article, one of the best images that condense this function: the end of a stalactite.
