Abstract

Polygamy is a sensitive issue for women around the globe; Indonesian women are no exception. The issue of polygamy has influenced the Indonesian literature including fiction. Antara Ibuku dan Ibuku novel by Desni Intan Suri is one of Indonesian fictions stressing on polygamy. This study aims to describe the state of women’s acceptances of polygamy; how they perceive love and sense of belonging and how they cope with the infidelity in their marriage lives. This study is qualitative descriptive in nature by examining and describing dialogues in the novel focusing on women perspectives of polygamy from the main female characters. The results showed that these women have different ways of perceiving love and sense of belonging and coping with the infidelity in their marriage lives.
