520 _aMalle Gevallen: Een kluchtig verhaal by Hans Martin is a humorous novel written in the early 20th century. It follows a spirited trio—the unnamed narrator, Boy, and Bram—through boozy student pranks, flirtations, and rambles from The Hague to Leiden and Scheveningen. With a breezy, wisecracking voice, it lampoons pompous types, charts Boy’s tender pull toward Kitty, and revels in slapstick mishaps on land and sea. The opening of the story frames everything as a playful fiction told in the first person, then briskly reveals outcomes (who marries whom) before rewinding to how the friends met. We see Boy’s cheeky schoolroom rebellion, a headlong dash to the director, and an escalating run of antics that brings Bram literally tumbling into their lives on the dunes, a chaotic bar scene with the perpetually soused Dirk, and a comic train episode where an officious passenger is outwitted. A long, anarchic night in Leiden follows: borrowing trousers for Dirk, wrecking rooms with eggs and butter, a collapsed lamp and gas scare, a stolen trough of dough, and Boy’s plunge into the Rapenburg, capped by a wary dawn and a failed attempt to get Dirk to a wedding. The pace then softens into club life at the Mafkolder—teas, teasing, and rivalry with a bragging “katjang”—as Kitty quietly checks on Boy’s character, and the pair finally confess mutual affection. The section closes as the friends travel to Enkhuizen to fetch Bram’s refitted boat, scrape its foul cabin clean, and push off at dusk into a mist-threatened Zuiderzee, with the narrator at the helm and the first chill of night setting in.
