Literary synopsis *Ik, Jan Cremer* ends with the words “to be continued“, and indeed a short time after the bulkier *Ik, Jan Cremer 2* followed. Those who were expecting to pick up the thread would be disappointed. It is a very different book. *Ik, Jan Cremer 2* is more than a witty picaresque of a motorbike hero. The fury of the first part is missing, the violence is often funny as grotesque, comic book-like and the sex scenes are humorous, flat and pornographic. The book is much more disorganized than *Ik, Jan Cremer*. All kinds of fragments are coursing through each other. The whole book is one big juxtaposition in which the literary fragments are easily disassociated. [Novel website](http://www.jancremer.com/index.php?subpage=books/&page=book11)
