Abstract

This research aims to find a dilemma in the novel The Holy Woman by Qaisra Shahraz, which depicts a feminist activist named Zarri Banno. In the story, Zarri Bano, the landlord's daughter, lives in luxury, gets the highest education access, and adores many people because of her beauty. Unfortunately, after her family loses the only inheritance, she must struggle to protect herself from the patriarchal tyranny in her family. Zarri Bano must surrender to her marriage and devotes her life being Shahzadi Ibadat. The moral dilemma happens to Zarri Bano since Habib forces her to be a Holy Woman, so she doesn't have a choice to choose her desires. The researcher tries to analyze Zarri Bano's struggles using care-focused feminism by Carol Gilligan. Care-focused feminism focuses on the moral development that happens to women, especially since this theory has three stages: pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional. Each step of Gilligan's approach tries to depict Zarri Bano's dilemma of choosing between her love or obedience to the tradition. This research uses qualitative methods that focus on description and interprtation. The result shows that Zarri Bano's dilemma brings her to find her new identity as a woman; she also realizes that a woman is supposed to fight injustice.
