El activismo social, la lucha feminista y la búsqueda espiritual confluyen en la obra de Eva Gore-Booth a la hora de escribir la experiencia femenina, cuestionando los roles de género y los conceptos tradicionales de masculinidad y feminidad. Frente al revisionismo mítico-literario irlandés del Irish Revival, eminentemente masculino, que continúa perpetuando asimetrías de género, son las autoras las que reivindicarán la necesidad de una genealogía femenina que sirva como referente identitario para sus contemporáneas. Desde esta mirada feminista, Eva Gore-Booth reconstruye el imaginario celta su Irlanda natal, transformando y subvirtiendo las narrativas patriarcales para configurar su propio corpus de referentes femeninos.
