"Objek dari penelitian ini adalah bagaimana makanan dapat menampilkan kompleksitas pembentukan identitas perempuan dalam novel Fasting Feasting. Melalui analisis wacana diperoleh hasil pembentukan identitas yang direpresentasikan dalam hubungan tokoh-tokoh perempuan dengan makanan. Dari pilihan-pilihan kata yang menunjukkan kedekatan tokoh perempuan dengan makanan menghasilkan identitas yang mengukuhkan stereotip perempuan yang dibentuk oleh masyarakat patriarki. Namun, pembentukan identitas tersebut juga dilakukan oleh tokoh-tokoh perempuan. Dua tokoh ibu dalam novel tersebut melanggengkan identitas perempuan yang stereotipik pada anak-anak mereka dengan cara bercerita dan membiasakan mereka melakukan ritual-ritual tertentu yang berhubungan dengan makanan. Dari sini dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa pembentukan identitas yang stereotipik tidak semata-mata dilakukan oleh masyarakat patriarki. Perempuan, yang menjadi objek dalam pembentukan identitas, turut aktif dalam membentuk identitas perempuan selanjutnya. Anita Desai sebagai penulis, menggunakan novel tersebut untuk menampilkan ideologinya yang mempertanyakan kembali posisi perempuan dalam pembentukan identitas. Melalui hubungan makanan dengan perempuan, Desai menunjukkan bahwa perempuan mampu bermain dengan posisi mereka dalam pembentukan identitas perempuan yang stereotipik.

The main objective of this research is how food can reflect the complexity of the forming of women identity in the novel Fasting Feasting by Anita Desai. The forming of women identity represented in the relationship of female characters with food is gained through discourse analysis. From the choice of words which shows the closeness relation of female characters with food, it exposes identities that support the stereotyped women identities which are formed by the patriarchal society. However, this forming is also done by the female characters. Two mother characters perpetuate the stereotyped of women identities to their children by telling stories and making them accustomed to rituals related with food in the family.

It can be concluded that the forming of stereotyped identities is not only done by the patriarchal society, but also by the women. Women, who are objected in the forming of their identities, are also active in creating the same identities to the next female generation. Anita Desai as the author uses the novel to reveal her ideology which questioning women position in the creation of their identities. Through the women relation with food, Desai demonstrates that women are capable of playing with their position in the forming of the stereotyped women identities."
