The Opposing Shore (French: Le Rivage des Syrtes) is a 1951 novel by the French writer Julien Gracq. The story is set at the border between two fictional Mediterranean countries, Orsenna and Farghestan, which have been at war for 300 years. It is Gracq's third and most famous novel. It was awarded the Prix Goncourt, but Gracq refused to accept the prize as a protest against commercial compromising in world literature.

  • Le Rivage des Syrtes est le roman le plus connu de Julien Gracq (1951, éditions José Corti). Julien Gracq avait déjà dénoncé, dans son pamphlet La Littérature à l'estomac (1949, même éditeur), les compromissions commerciales du monde littéraire de cette époque. Il refusera donc le prix Goncourt décerné à son roman l'année de sa parution. (fr)

  • Vid Syrterns stränder (franska: Le rivage des Syrtes) är roman från 1951 av den franske författaren Julien Gracq. Handlingen skildrar det fiktiva furstendömet Orsenna som sedan 200 år har varit i krig med landet Farghestan, ett krig där inga strider har utkämpats på årtionden men ingen fred heller har slutits. Huvudpersonen är en man som är stationerad nära gränsen till Farghestan och som är trött på det fastkörda läget. (sv)

It was awarded the Prix Goncourt, but Gracq refused to accept the prize as a protest against commercial compromising in world literature. The novel has been described as a "Wagnerian prelude for an unplayed opera" as it doesn't focus on telling a story but is first and foremost concerned with creating a mysterious, out-of-time atmosphere.

Boken tilldelades Goncourtpriset, men Gracq valde att avstå från priset som en protest mot kommersialisering och kompromisser inom världslitteraturen. Boken gavs ut på svenska 1952 i översättning av C. G. Bjurström. (sv)
