Abstract

This research aimed to obtain an in-depth picture and understanding of the life struggle of female characters in the novels written by Abidah El Khalieqy. A qualitative descriptive research design was used with a feminist approach. The data in this research was the result of a study of the novels Perempuan Berkalung Sorban and Geni Jora by Abidah El Khalieqy. The procedure used in analyzing research data was content analysis. The data validity analysis used the triangulation technique. Based on the results of research and discussion, it was found that the struggle to fight injustice was a struggle against 1) marginalization of women; and 2) subordination of women.
