Dot Serfontein het Liefde in die kwepertyd as 'n vervolgverhaal in Sarais Marais geskryf. Dit was egter so gewild, dat dit in boekvorm verskyn het gedurende 1960. In hierdie verhaal raak ’n teruggetrokke boer verlief op die foto van ’n hartseer donkerkopnooi in sy bure se huis. 'n Briefwisseling ontstaan en die boer is oortuig dat hy sy trouvrou ontmoet het. Wanneer sy op die plaas aankom, is die briefskrywer – ‘n sagggeaarde blondine met kuiltjies in haar wange – egter glad nie die meisie op die foto nie . . . Die boer moet besluit of liefde ’n illusie of werklikheid is.

Nog 'n lekkerlees liefdesverhaal van Dot Serfontein. Emma is baie ongelukkig getroud en kinderloos. Haar lewe neem egter onverwagte draaie wanneer 'n boer, Van Greunen, op hul plaas kom boor vir water. Sy staan voor 'n moeilike keuse: Moet sy getrou bly aan haar man en hul ongelukkige huwelik voortsit, of moet sy haar hart volg?

Dis 1899 en die begin van die Anglo-Boereoorlog. Vir Frank Ingram, sy beste vriend Michal Ras en die se verloofde Kath Rouwenhorst begin dit in Oktober tydens 'n swierige verjaardagparty in die Boland. Vir Frank, 'n student in die teologie wat sy studies staak om te gaan veg, is dit ook die begin van 'n innerlike stryd wat hom afspeel rondom die absurditeite en ontnugtering van die oorlog. Later sal Frank homself afvra of die geweld van oorlog 'n sluimerende behoefte aan wreedheid in hom bevredig. En uiteindelik kom die vraag: Wat was die werklike uitwerking van die oorlog? Die titel van hierdie ontroerende roman kom uit die ou Vrystaatse volkslied waarvan die eerste strofe lui: Heft Burgers ’t lied der vrijheid aan / En zingt ons eigen volksbestaan! / Van vreemde banden vrij, / Bekleedt ons klein gemenebest, // Op orde, wet en recht gevest, / Rang in der staten rij.

'n Boer met 'n voorliefde vir wilddiefstal moet teen die agtergrond van aanpassingsprobleme in sy huwelik en veranderende politieke omstandighede noodgedwonge sy (rampspoedige) laaste jagtog uitvoer. En dan is daar ou Drien, die kleremaakster, wat diep in haar middeljare uiteindelik 'n "regte" huweliksaansoek kry; Diederik Verster wat onbesorg met ’n uiters sonderlinge stokperdjie voortploeter; en die "antie" wat 'n "sirpraais" in die vorm van 'n bykorf vol bye kry en dan, ongelukkig, graag die bye wil bevriend. Die humor en deernis wat in die alledaagse skuil, kom in hierdie bundel kortverhale na vore – vertel soos net die skerpsinnige Dot Serfontein kan. Kleurvolle karakters beleef hartseer sowel as snaakse en soms pynlike avonture.

Met haar innemende en boeiende vertelstyl teken Dot Serfontein in Systap onder die juk verhale oor die lewens van ’n versameling merkwaardige mense op.

Die leser leer ken ’n groep Noord-Vrystaters wat aan dié wêreld sy sonderlinge geskiedenis en karakter verleen het. Dit is ’n distrik “lankal reeds bewoon deur verantwoordelike, stoere mense wat hulle deur niemand laat voorsê nie”, soos dit in die titelverhaal gestel word.

Van hierdie stoere mense is byvoorbeeld die unieke tant Hannie Wolmarans. Die staaltjies oor haar het vir die skryfster as kind so onwaarskynlik geklink dat hulle in dieselfde klas as sprokies geval het. Daar is byvoorbeeld ook oom Lood, wat selfs in die eienaardige Serfontein-familie, hom kon onderskei as ’n eienaardige mens. Die luimige aard van die vertellings word ook in hierdie bundel deurweef met waardering en deernis, veral vir haar ma Boeta en pa Oupats.

NO PLACE FOR NAKED DOWSERS (The sequel to Corrigans' Pool, which was prestigious Foreword Review's 2011 "Book of the Year" - Historical Romance division) NO PLACE FOR NAKED DOWSERS: Even after Civil War decimated Ella Corrigan's revered Georgia plantation and post-war efforts to revitalize it met with one setback after another, she never dreamed that her new husband, Gentry Garland, would want to leave it all behind and take her and their son to his ranch land in the wilds of Texas. She refuses to go, but Gentry does something that will give her no choice-something that, overnight, turns her love for him into a bitter obsession for revenge. Ella finds Texas in the midst of a killer drought and filled with strange characters that either terrify or revolt her. In constant longing for her family's ancestral plantation home back in Georgia, she devises a plan to return there someday and reclaim her property ... but it will take time and money to do so. The wedge between her and Gentry thickens ... as does the plot. Will Gentry's vast herds of Longhorn cattle be the answer to his money problems or will his need to save his land drive him to a danger that will force Ella to a decision that could have disastrous consequences for them both...

ELLA CORRIGAN'S despair at being jilted pales in light of what follows after she makes the hasty decision to marry a man she has long avoided. Unaware that a friend's secret act of jealousy is responsible for her bitter heartache, she enters an existence never imagined during sweeter days as Mistress of her father's Savannah River plantation - where a mystery is building around the family's phenomenal natural spring, Corrigans' Pool. . . . The South is embroiled in a bloody Civil War by the time Ella discovers that Corrigans' Pool, on her family's property, is much more than the exquisite pond she had thought it to be all her life, but by the time she learns its dangerous secret, she is trapped by a secret of her own, blackmailed, and powerless against one man's unspeakable evil. Haunted by the threat of scandal, she struggles against the horrors of her new existence, an existence she must keep private even from the very people who could help her. Her life comes full circle when the past she has long blamed for her wretchedness steps unexpectedly out of the darkness to face her . . . FIVE STAR FOREWORD CLARION REVIEW (EXCERPT): Ryan's storytelling ability and masterful use of setting, dialogue, and characterization, adds up to an exquisite piece of historical fiction. Corrigans' Pool manages to blend romance, mystery, humor, and tragedy with flawless precision. The romance is moving but subtle, the mystery is suspenseful, and the story flows smoothly to a dramatic and satisfying conclusion. Readers are sure to be enthralled with this exceptional novel. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Met bewondering, deernis en ’n skerp sin vir humor skets Dot Serfontein die geskiedenis van kontreie wat nie aan interessante mense ontbreek nie.

In Ek Is Maar Ene kring vertellinge van haar kinderjare en familie in die Vrystaat uit na kleurvolle karakters van die Kalahari en na (dikwels senutergende) reise met haar gesin na ander dele van Suid-Afrika.

Sy vertel van die swerwende tant Beatrice wat geglo het sy word deur die geheime polisie agtervolg; van die kreatiewe wyse waarop geharde Kalaharimense hul wêreld herbergsaam gemaak het, hoe Askham sy naam gekry het en hoe ’n Chev-bakkie kan boomklim.

Hierdie bundel boeiende sketse is by tye skreeusnaaks, maar nooit gaan die waardering vir die mense agter die stories verlore nie.
