abstract: Literary works often delve into the intricacies and contradictions inherent in the human experience, embodying the philosophical concept of dualism, which emphasizes the existence of opposing forces or elements. In the novel Alif the Unseen, the central characters, Alif, a young hacker, and Vikram, a djinn with magical powers, serve as counterparts in this dualistic narrative. Despite Alif's contemporary, technology-driven existence and skepticism toward myths, he encounters Vikram, challenging his beliefs. The problem highlights the conflict between contemporary and ancient elements, as depicted by Alif, a modern hacker who is not expected to believe in the existence of Vikram, a mythical creature, in daily life. This research delves into the dualistic nature of characters Alif and Vikram in the novel Alif the Unseen. This research is a qualitative study that applies the binary opposition theory by Levi-Strauss. Through the lens of binary opposition theory by Levi-Strauss, the study focuses on Human vs. Supernatural, Fear vs. Courage, and Modern vs. Traditional binaries. This research aims to discover how the binary opposition between Vikram the Vampire and Alif is depicted and uncover the important meaning behind their dualism. The findings illustrate that the novel invites readers to navigate human complexities, where the supernatural complements the human, facing fears fosters bravery, and tradition and modernity converge in self-discovery. This exploration reveals the harmonious interplay of opposing forces within each character's journey, offering a meaningful narrative experience.
