Shirley’s work emphasizes women’s perspectives. Be it sex scenes in film or death. Every scene was a reaction to women wanting to escape. Rose wanted to leave as she felt she deserved more and better. Shirley set women in her stories to greater freedom. Rose never diminished from exploring herself, with or without Fred, and she made a pact to set herself free in story and that is what happens in end.
