"Die teenwoordigheid van die Chinese in Steynshoop het die dorp die afgelope paar jaar ingrypend verander.

Benna Potgieter, wonderkind in sy prille jeug, is sedert sy pa se dood ’n haarkapper in sy ma se salon. Sy lewe neem ’n drastiese wending wanneer die skilder Fonny, sy groot verlore liefde, onverwags na die dorp terugkeer.

Snaaks, droewig, wrang en oneerbiedig – ’n opwindende nuwe roman in ware Winterbach-trant."

Magrieta Prinsloo, dierkundige, se kop haak uit op die verkeerde antidepressant. Sy raak vervreem van haar kollegas, beledig haar departementshoof, en haar illustere akademiese loopbaan kom tot ’n einde.

Sy aanvaar ’n betrekking by die Buro vir Voortgesette Onderrig, met die enigmatiese Markus Potsdam as hoof van die Kaapse tak. Daar word van haar verwag om te reis om met medewerkers te skakel, o.m. na die Oos-Kaap. Op hierdie reise kom sy heelwat teë – sowel medewerkers as walvisse – wat haar lewe in ’n beduidende ander koers stuur. Wanneer Markus Potsdam boonop op ’n oggend verdwyn, raak haar lewe nog verder gekompliseer.

In Die troebel tyd bewys Winterbach weer haar merkwaardige vernuf as romansier, met ’n eiesoortige, snydende humor en ’n buitengewone insig in die menslike psige.

Die roman is as wenner aangewys van NB-Uitgewers se Groot Afrikaanse Romanwedstryd in 2018.

Karolina Ferreira, an entomologist, goes to a small Free State town to do research on the survival strategies of a rare moth species. The elusive moth is the story of a woman amongst men. Karolina stays in the local hotel where she meets up with some fascinating - mostly male - characters - the enigmatic lawyer, Pol Habermaut; the lecherous lieutenant Kieliemann; the inscrutable town magistrate; the destructive captain Gert Els; the wealthy but suicidal farmer, Tonnie de Melck. During the day Willie September, a natural healer, introduces Karolina to the mysteries of the drought-stricken veld. At night she is introduced and exposed to the town's political intrigue and power games while playing snooker, drinking whiskey in the ladies bar, and dancing the tango with a certain Mr Kolyn, who may or may not be a police informer.

Helena Verbloem, leksikograaf van beroep, gaan na Durban as projek-assistent van 'n man wat alle woorde byeen probeer bring wat in onbruik geraak het in Afrikaans. Dan word daar by haar tuinwoonstel ingebreek en haar geliefde skulpe word gesteel. Die verhaal ontvou rondom die soektog na die gesteelde skulpe. Hierdie soeke raak verweef en verstrengel met die taalbewaringsprojek, die mense wat sy daar leer ken en met haar algemene besinning oor haar lewe - herinneringe aan haar familie, verlore minnaars en liefdes, verliese wat sy gely het. Ek weet wat 'n terapeut sal se. Agter elke verlies le 'n vroeer verlies. Die verlies van my skulpe is 'n voorwendsel ('n jakkalsdraai, 'n verbloeming en bewimpeling) 'n poging van die geslepe psige om die vroeer, pynlike verlies te verdoesel.

Komies, hartroerend, meditatief, verruimend! Hierdie kick-ass roman bied ’n priemende blik op twee parallelle reise: ’n man en ’n vrou elk op soek na die oorsake van ’n broer en ’n suster se ondergang.

Na ’n onthutsende oproep van ene Josias Brandt, vertrek Karl Hofmeyr teësinnig om sy broer, Iggy, wie se kop skynbaar uitgehaak het, te hulp te snel. Karl – heavy-metal-fan de luxe – se reis word vertraag deur sy obsessies wat hom in verskillende situasies lelik kniehalter.

Maria Volschenk word op ’n dag oorval deur ’n groot leegte. Sy reis na die Wes-Kaap op ’n sending waarteen sy lankal opsien, in ’n poging om hierdie beleërende leegte af te weer. Die twee verhaallyne vloei saam op ’n onwaarskynlike stadsplaas iewers in Kaapstad, waar die broer, Ignatius Hofmeyr, in ’n bitter tweestryd met die onpeilbare Brandt-kêrel gewikkel is.
