The word desert is often used metaphorically to describe a deprived environment, as a desert is deprived of water. Thus from Gao Village: A Portrait of Rural Life in Modern China by M C F Gao:

Walt Whitman was not the only writer to claim that he was "simmering, simmering, simmering" until reading Emerson brought him "to a boil." Emily Dickinson's poetic direction was quite different, but she too was a thoughtful reader of Emerson and Fuller. In his own way, even Frederick Douglass incorporated many lessons of transcendental thought from Emerson.
