Abstract

This study aims to reveal the Simulacra and Hyperreality in the novel ALAP by IAQ. The theoretical framework used to dissect the novel is the thought of Jean Baudrillard. Baudrillard revealed the occurrence of changes in the character of culture in society and introducing the character of society as a society that is complex in fulfilling its desires. People who live with irregularities in codes, signs, and models in simulacra. As a result, people are trapped in a condition of losing awareness of values and functions, thena life that should be based on reality becomes hyperreality. Humans this century live in a world of simulacra. Humans live in a world full of simulations, nothing real outside the simulation, nothing original can be imitated. The pinnacle of hyperreality is that a person becomes a hedonist, that is has a consumptive behavior. That behavior becomes a habit of life. As a result, there is a change in the character of culture in society and introducing the character of society as a wasteful society.
