{"product_id":"762","title":"The Wayward Bus","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished shortly after the monumental success of The Grapes of Wrath, this compelling novel showcases Steinbeck’s remarkable talent for capturing the complexity of ordinary lives. Set aboard a bus traveling the back roads of California, the story brings together a vivid cast of passengers — the lonely, the ambitious, the broken, and the hopeful — each carrying secrets, desires, and fading dreams. Through sharp observation and deeply human storytelling, Steinbeck paints a powerful portrait of postwar America and the uncertain search for a better future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a first edition hardcover copy in excellent condition overall. The binding is tight and solid, and the pages are clean and well preserved. The book itself shows very little wear. The original dust jacket is present but has several tears and signs of wear consistent with age. Despite the jacket’s condition, this remains a highly attractive collectible copy of a classic Steinbeck novel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Steinbeck, John","offers":[{"title":"Satisfaisant \/ Édition originale - Rigide (Viking)","offer_id":48706613411940,"sku":"SH-076257","price":57.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0763\/8469\/8468\/files\/Steinbeck_John_-_The_Wayward_Bus_-_Viking_-_livre_usage.webp?v=1779456769","url":"https:\/\/lepasdecote.ca\/products\/762","provider":"Le Pas de côté","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
