"The Wayward Bus" is John Steinbeck's masterpiece about the losers of the American dream. John Steinbeck wrote this novel just after his huge success "The Grapes of Wrath". It narrates the eventful journey of a rural bus between the towns of Rebel Corners and San Juan de la Cruz, in California, at the end of World War II. It is a masterly portrait of characters and a steely study of the central problems of all men at all times: family, sex, love, ambitions, frustrations and longings... This work moves away from sentimentality and complacency. It is an interior journey into the hearts of travelers lost in the disappointment of the American dream. "The Wayward Bus" contains some of the great classic themes within the narrative work of Nobel Prize winner for Literature John Steinbeck.

About the Author

About The Author
One of the leading American novelists of the 20th century, John Steinbeck (1902-1968) grew up in the fertile Salinas Valley in California, an environment that served as a setting for some of his best-loved books. Several of his most powerful novels, including Cannery Row, Of Mice and Men, and The Grapes of Wrath, focus on the plight of California's laboring class, while East of Eden is an ambitious family saga and The Pearl is a simple, yet effective telling of good vs evil. Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1962.
