The putting into words of the intentional object draws attention to both the poetic nature of Lipuš's text as well as to the particular function of style in the novel Boštjanov let. The intentional objects - water, house/home and škopnik (a bundle of straw for thatching) - are part of the author's vital world. Since they determine his way of life, Lipuš has a special ralation towards them on a poetic level. The author is not an external observer of objects, but becomes drawn into them by his manner of existence in the world, which is determined by the existentials: joy, worry and horror.
