“What a mess was just 24 hours,” says the Dutch consul eduard at one point in the Inferno of Slauerhoff by Luuk Imhann. And he is right, because a murder has been committed, the murderer has also been killed, a few suicides come by, adultery takes place, the wife of the consul is running away and a Jewish woman has to flee to name a little. The former ship’s doctor Slauerhoff who runs a practice for venereal diseases in Tangier in 1934 drags himself from one incident to another.
