Dorothy Richardson bola priekopníčka modernej prózy, ktorá sa vyznačovala revolučným využitím prúdu vedomia. Jej celoživotné dielo, rozsiahly románový cyklus, skúma zložitosť ženskej skúsenosti a vnútorný život postáv s nebývalou hĺbkou. Richardson sa zamerala na zachytenie jemných nuáns myšlienok a pocitov, čím posunula hranice tradičného rozprávania. Jej štýl, ovplyvnený bohémskou kultúrou a filozofickými prúdmi jej doby, priniesol do anglickej literatúry novú úroveň psychologického realizmu.
