Run for your lives, it's gonna blow! |
Rivero offers a justification for the women's behaviour, but I don't buy it. I'm not sure if it's intentionally unsatisfactory or not. Was there a historical precedent where such a thing happened in real life? Was Rivero making a symbolic point, does the lava represent something else? How am I supposed to feel about these women that stayed? Are they brave or stupid? So much to decide! Fortunately it's flash fiction so I can read it over and over to work out some theories.
