Dorothy Richardson byla průkopnicí modernistické prózy, která se vyznačovala revolučním využitím proudu vědomí. Její celoživotní dílo, rozsáhlý románový cyklus, zkoumá složitost ženské zkušenosti a vnitřní život postav s nebývalou hloubkou. Richardson se zaměřovala na zachycení jemných nuancí myšlenek a pocitů, čímž posunula hranice tradičního vyprávění. Její styl, ovlivněný bohémskou kulturou a filozofickými proudy její doby, přinesl do anglické literatury novou úroveň psychologického realismu.
