Abstract

The major problem of this study is how multiple personality is reflected in the major character’s personality. The aim of this study is to analyze Sidney Sheldon’s Tell Me Your Dreams based on the structural elements and the personality of the major character based on psychoanalytic perspective. In so doing, the study focuses on the major character, namely Ashley Patterson. The benefits of the study are to give additional information which can be used by other researchers who are interested in analyzing this novel and to enrich the writer knowledge about literary work. The study uses library data; the primary data source id the novel itself, while the secondary data are taken from some information needed. The method of data collection is descriptive qualitative research. The study employs Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalysis to answer the problem. The outcome of this study shows that the problem that major character encounters causes the conflict of her mental condition. Then, it develops to be her anxiety that influences her to do some ways to escape her anxiety. Actually, these ways are not effective to overcome the problem.
