Steinbeck's The Wayward Bus movie (1957)

I'm not a big fan of fiction but I am fascinated by John Steinbeck.  I've read about half of his books.  I just started The Wayward Bus, thinking it was going to be about a bus trip involving farmers, vagabonds, and ne'er-do-wells from Salinas.

Innocent-looking cover

Was I in for a shock.  It reads like a steamy romance novel.  Here is the movie trailer, starring Jayne Mansfield and Joan Collins.
