Abstract
A culture in Javanese society that is still widely believed that there is a connection between dreams, prayer and its reality. The relation of the three elements in life is expressed by the author into one literary text. Literary works which are full of one regional culture are interesting to study, because through the literary text, readers and authors are able to see a diverse perspective on the situation and issues related to their society. This study tries to compare two literary works which are loaded with Javanese culture, especially Javanese people's beliefs with dreams and their implications for life. By utilizing the literature comparison method, the results obtained from the comparison of two novels by Ayu Utami and Goenawan Mohamad resulted in the conclusion that Javanese people's trust in dreams related to the reality of life can create a reality that is relevant to dreams that arise. This belief ultimately becomes a new stigma in society.
