Desert, snake, ?!
I really don't remember much about this book...I read it sometime in the past 15 years and I feel like it was adult fiction, maybe fantasy. Protagonist (male...? Maybe?) is in the desert and there is some kind of thing sticking up out of the sand, with (I think) a patch of cement or stone around it, and a snake on it? I think he talks to the snake, or it talks to him. I seem to recall that he is dying, and maybe the snake sees to it that he doesn't. Or that he does. Good lord this is vague...I apologize.
