Abstract

Indonesia has a diversity of ethnicities and religions. Coexistence is a necessity in this country. In order for multicultural and  multireligious societies to coexist, a spirit of pluralism is needed. The spirit of pluralism can be taught through literature. This study aims to channel pluralism values through prose. Dear Malangel Izrail’s novel teaches pluralism with the diversity and ability of the characters to be  tolerant. This novel can be a reference for plural character education for the younger generation. This study is qualitative in nature and the data is collected using documentation techniques.
