Dorothy Miller Richardson (17 May 1873 – 17 June 1957) was a British author and journalist.
Author of Pilgrimage, a sequence of 13 semi-autobiographical novels published between 1915 and 1967—though Richardson saw them as chapters of one work—she was one of the earliest modernist novelists to use stream of consciousness as a narrative technique.
Richardson also emphasizes in Pilgrimage the importance and distinct nature of female experiences.
The title Pilgrimage alludes not only to "the journey of the artist ...
to self-realization but, more practically, to the discovery of a unique creative form and expression".
