Ook hierin weer een stuk van Lieneke Frerichs over Gorter en van Jan van der Vegt over A. Roland Holst. Verder onder meer Frits David Zeiler over Bergen aan Zee in de literatuur, Youp van ‘t Hek met een aardig, lichtelijk sentimenteel verhaal waarin hij het ‘schaamteloze naaktstrand’ beschrijft vol ‘mannen met een verschrompelde gnoomgarnaal tussen hun oude benen’, Adriaan van Dis en Joost Zwagerman, die onder andere herinneringen ophaalt aan zijn tijd als ijsverkopende vakantiehulp. De uitgave besluit met een korte literaire wandeling en informatie over Marcel Schellekens, de maker van het omslagschilderij met strandstoel.
