About this listen

Looking for a gentle, meditative tale to help you wind down before sleep? The Keeper’s Last Watch is a calming bedtime story for adults, perfect for mindful evenings and quiet literary moments.

Set in a whitewashed lighthouse on a misty clifftop, the story follows an aging keeper as he prepares for his final night of duty. As fog drifts in and stars fade behind wisps of cloud, he climbs the spiral stairs one last time to light the beacon that has guided countless ships home.

This slow, atmospheric story unfolds like a meditation on memory, duty, and the quiet dignity of a life well-lived. With lyrical prose and rich sensory details — salt air, creaking wood, the steady sweep of light — it’s written to help listeners unwind and breathe deeply.

Why People Love It:

  • Atmospheric & Immersive: Feel transported to a lighthouse by the sea.
  • Peaceful & Meditative: A bedtime story for adults seeking stillness.
  • Themes of Memory & Legacy: Honors the beauty of ordinary lives.

Perfect For Fans Of:

  • Gentle, contemplative literary tales
  • Coastal and lighthouse settings
  • Slow, meditative narratives

Length: Short story, ideal for a single quiet sitting

A little bit basic, it’s still sooting but it’s just a basic poem to turned into an audio book

I have no idea what this book was about, so as an “adult bedtime story” I guess this means mission accomplished!
The narrator was not my personal style but didn’t disrupt my ability to fall asleep.
