Cache-sexe
This book asks why humans through history have covered their genitals and worn a cache-sexe. Does the cache-sexe merely provide protection, or is it an instrument to draw attention? Can the cache-sexe be used to stimulate certain thoughts? Why does not wearing a cache-sexe provoke shame one society but not in another? Are nudity and nakedness the same?
On his quest to answer these questions, the author takes the reader on a review of the anatomy of the female and male genitals and reflects on how this part of the human body has been perceived over time and in various cultures. The different types of male and female cache-sex are discussed with reference to comprehensive illustrations based on unique and sometimes previously unpublished examples of cache-sexes and photographic documentation. The book also pays attention to the covering of the ‘backside’. Following this 360° exploration of the use of the cache-sexe, the place of the cache-sexe in art and fashion is uncovered.

De Goargels
Midden yn ’e nacht wurdt Melle wekker. Der sit in frjemd wêzentsje op de râne fan syn bêd. It liket wol in boltsje wol, mei earmkes en skonkjes en twa hierrige, puntige earen. Mar as Melle it ljocht oandocht, is it wêzentsje fuort.
As er der op skoalle oer fertelt laitsje se him allegear út. Sels heit, dy’t biolooch is, seit dat it ûnsin is, dat sokke wêzentsjes net bestean. Mar Melle wit seker wat er sjoen hat …
No ek yn it Frysk, dit fantasyrike en spannende aventoer oer Goargels, Brutelers en in jonge mei supereagen, fan Jochem Myjer. Yllustrearre troch Rick de Haas, bekend fan Mees Kees.

Oranjekoek
Zoveel Friese bakkers, zoveel oranjekoeken. Een Fries feest is niet compleet zonder oranjekoek. Het zoete banket kent een lange historie en is uitgegroeid tot een feestelijk symbool. Maar zoals ‘dé Fries’ niet bestaat, heeft ook dé oranjekoek vele verschijningsvormen. In een tot fotostudio
omgebouwd busje is beeldend kunstenaar Tryntsje Nauta op bezoek geweest bij alle drieënnegentig Friese bakkers om hun oranjekoek te documenteren.Safolle bakkers, safolle oranjekoeken. In Frysk feest is net kompleet sûnder oranjekoeke. It swiete banket hat in lange histoarje en is útgroeid ta in feestlik symboal. Mar sa as ‘dè Fries’ net bestiet, hat ek dè oranjekoeke in soad ferskiningsfoarmen. Yn in ta fotostudio omboud buske gie keunstner Tryntsje Nauta op besite by alle trijeennjoggentich bakkers om harren oranjekoeke te fotografearjen.
There are as many oranjekoeken as there are bakeries. A Frisian party is not complete without oranjekoek. This sweet pastry has a long history and has gradually developed into a festive Frisian icon. But just as there is no stereotypical Frisian, likewise oranjekoek comes in many forms. In a minibus converted into a photographic studio photographer Tryntsje Nauta visited all the ninety-three bakeries to photograph their oranjekoek.
