Atherton's works often reflect her California roots and engage with themes of feminism, politics, and war. Her bestselling novel, Black Oxen, inspired a silent film adaptation. She began her writing career with serialized stories, facing family ostracism upon revealing her authorship. Following her initial publication, she moved to New York and traveled to London before returning to California. Her debut novel, published in 1888 under a pseudonym, marked the beginning of a prolific career that included novels, short stories, essays, and articles.
