−	Like many of his plays, this was based on a real event and a real person, and it became a play about the disintegration of a marriage and the existential crisis of woman, in the process providing a haunting exploration of the core features of the broader [[Afrikaner]] psyche. Technically the play was a ~~significant~~ move away from Fourie's ~~usual social realism towards~~ a far more expressionist mode of writing. It is the first in what was to become a trilogy of plays about the [[Afrikaner]] by Fourie, the others being ''[[Die Koggelaar]]'' and ''[[Donderdag se Mense]]'', which had a significant impact on the playwriting of the next generation of [[Afrikaans]] [[playmakers]].	+	Like many of his plays, this was based on a real event and a real person, and it became a play about the disintegration of a marriage and the existential crisis of woman, in the process providing a haunting exploration of the core features of the broader [[Afrikaner]] psyche. Technically the play was a yet another move, even further away from the original social realism that characterizes Fourie's early days and the symbolic adaptations he introduced to his notion of [[volksteater]] in the 1970s, to a far more theatrically expressionist mode of writing - yet rooted in the life of the rural [[Afrikaner]] throughout.

	In 1993 Fourie also wrote ''[[Post Mortem]]'' as a final piece ("sluitstuk") in what would thereafter become known as his quartet of "farm tragedies" ("plaastragedies").
