Autobús Perdido, El - Paperback

by John Steinbeck (Author)

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.
