O'Sullivan was associated with the Decadent movement, which emphasized art for art's sake, and his work often explored themes of aestheticism, morbidity, and the macabre. Despite being a prolific writer, he remained relatively obscure and is considered a minor figure in late 19th and early 20th-century literature.
