Abstract

The aims of this study are: 1) To describe the characteristics of Theodore Finch described in the novel All the Bright Places; 2) Find out the reasons that prompted Finch to commit suicide; and 3) The ways Finch used to threaten his life. The type of research used by the researcher is qualitative research. In material object, the researcher uses the novel All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven published by Knopf Publishing Group in 2015. The formal object is Finch’s suicide. The analysis uses a psychological approach. The results show that Theodore Finch's general description in All The Bright Places is smart, caring, depressed, suicidal, gloomy, anxious, aggressive and angry. Reasons that inspired Finch to commit suicide from a psychological perspective promoted by Alfred Adler include six basic principles of individual psychological theory: feelings of inferiority, striving for excellence, lifestyle, social welfare, creative power, and fictional finalism. Because Finch suffers from bipolar, he tries to alleviate that suffering by making life-threatening attempts that are marked at various stages such as: General Anxiety, Anxiety Disorder, Stress Stage, and Hysteria Stage when Finch commits complete suicide.
