Abstract

In the literary era today, where identity is manifested in narratives, looking at written narrttives in literary works, one can see through the formation and construction of identity in the making and religion is one of many contributing factors of identity. Thus, this paper attempts to look at how women, in particular Muslim women are represented in the narratives written by one of prominent Muslim women writers in contemporary Indonesian literature, Helvy Tiana Rosa or simply called Helvy in order to see the making of religious idenfity in Indonesia. Helvy's stories often express how Muslim women are targeted and affected by religious conflicts that recently were and, in some cases, still are taking place in some regions in Indonesia.
