In Kerumunan Terakhir Okky Madasaricompares the lives of women at the top of a mountain and in a big city. Similar to Okky Madasari, Rodolfo Anaya also describes the harmonious life between nature and woman represented by Ultima in Bless Me Ultima. Ultima does not only preserve nature, she also uses nature to cure illness. Using the heuristic reading method and applying the basic principles of ecofeminism about gender equality and the close relationship between women and nature, this paper tries to see how women are represented as mother earth in Indonesia and in the United States contained in these two novels. By using an ecofeminism approach and a comparative literary theory, the representation of women as mother earth will be analyzed and interpreted according to the context in which the representation appears.Keyword: ecofeminism approach, mother earth, representation, comparative literature
