La Presqu'île is a collection of three stories: La Route, an excerpt from the first part of Terres du couchant, which only appeared posthumously in 2014; La Presqu'île, a short story in the vein of Un balcon en forêt; and Le Roi Cophetua, a short novel, one of the most singular in Gracq's work, which is similar to an Edgar Poe tale.
