The Tunnel is the fourth volume in Dorothy Richardson's novel series Pilgrimage. The series, set in the years 1893-1912, chronicles the life of Miriam Henderson, a "New Woman" rejecting the Victorian ideals of femininity and domesticity in favour of a modern life of independence. In addition to the formal and stylistic innovations in The Tunnel, its attention to womenâ??s experience of modernity is groundbreaking. It chronicles Miriam's working day as a dental receptionist and her forays into the public space of cafés, city streets, and political and intellectual talks. Richardson matches her focus on Miriam's consciousness with remarkable detail, giving the narrative a powerful realism.Contemporary reviews (including those by Virginia Woolf and Katherine Mansfield), personal letters, and Richardson's essays on modernism, feminism, and aesthetics place this important novel in context.
