Winter-surplus bevat `verse in haar vadertaal, het Afrikaans, en `verse in het Engels, haar moedertaal.

In ieder geval merken we al doende dat ook op het eerste gezicht eenvoudige poëzie erbij wint wanneer die van twee kanten wordt belicht; nu eens wordt de ironie wrang van narigheid, dan weer verzacht de humor het schrijnen.
