Text is clean and light. "The unpredictable Mr. Steinbeck has been having himself a ball with some of his contemporaries. This frothy extravaganza about French politics - and various other matters - is so full of fun and good natured satire that it almost bubbles over. It's clear that he has had a wonderful time writing it; and readers who don't hold it against a writer for changing his type will have a wonderful time reading it. There's a story here - of what happens to a retiring middle-aged astronomer suddenly drafted to rule the unruly French; of his teen-age glamour-struck daughter and her American swain son of the Egg King of Petaluma California; and of sundry members of the ancient nobility art dealers nuns guards gardeners politicians and plain people. But it would be criminal to try to tell more or to pretend that the story makes the book. This is the French Revolution upside down and Steinbeck at his most original."; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall .

The Wayward Bus is a novel by American author John Steinbeck originally published in 1947. The novel contains several references to the recent Second World War and America's attempts to adjust to life in the immediate postwar era. No single character dominates The Wayward Bus. The viewpoint shifts frequently from one character to another often taking the form of internal monologue so that we are experiencing a given character's thoughts. Much of the novel's length is simply devoted to establishing and delineating the various characters. This novel takes place firmly within "Steinbeck country": most of the narrative occurs at Rebel Corners a crossroads 42 miles south of San Ysidro California. Although considered one of Steinbeck's weaker novels at the time of its original publication The Wayward Bus was financially more successful than any of his previous works. The Viking Press hardcover
