About this listen

"The Lantern Bearers" is a personal essay which sees Robert Louis Stevenson reminisce about his childhood in Scotland, specifically the vivid image of a secret boys' club where they would carry lit lanterns hidden under their coats, only revealing them at a designated spot to create a sense of mystery and shared excitement.
