This research is descriptive qualitative research using data cards as a tool. The data in this study are in the form of fragments of dialog sentences between characters and narratives. The data collection technique in this research uses heuristic reading technique and the data analysis technique used is hermeneutic technique. Based on the research, it can be concluded that the novel Sang Keris tends to tell stories of the past. There are a number of deconstructed meanings or social values in the novel that can be integrated into today's society. These values include: (1) loyalty, (2) courage, (3) honor, (4) self-discovery, (6) morality, (7) love and sacrifice, and others. This deconstructive thinking can be implemented for students to identify various layers of meaning in studying literary texts or used by other researchers for other studies.]]>
