Synopsis

In this captivating miniseries, "Stevenson: The Wanderer of Words", we explore the extraordinary life of Robert Louis Stevenson, the beloved 19th-century author of Treasure Island and Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Set against the backdrop of Victorian society, the series delves into Stevenson's struggle with chronic illness, his turbulent relationship with his family, and his insatiable desire to travel the world. Each episode of this richly textured narrative will peel back the layers of Stevenson's life- his rebellious youth, his stormy love affair and marriage to Fanny Osbourne, and his journey across Europe, America, and the South Pacific. The series also intertwines his battle with tuberculosis, juxtaposed against the enduring power of his imagination that brought timeless characters to life. Through vivid landscapes, personal sacrifices, and the complexities of creativity, we witness the evolution of an ordinary man into an iconic literary figure. While anchored in historical drama, the miniseries offers a modern resonance, exploring themes of identity, the price of genius, and the quest for freedom, making Stevenson's story both timeless and deeply human.
