Beginning ~ with an enormous minivan

Ten Women ~ by Marcela Serrano, 2011, fiction (Chile)

"The madwomen, here come the madwomen, the workers on the grounds will be saying, spying on them from behind the trees.  Natasha can't decide which she finds more entertaining, observing the confusion of those burly men holding picks and hoes, or the women, who at that moment are filing out from the enormous minivan."

Who are these women?  Yes, I'm curious, so I kept reading.  It's confusing so far, as each woman gets a separate chapter to tell her story.  Natasha's chapter is the last one, so I'm hoping that's where their stories get tied together a bit more.
