He was not angry with God, he would be grateful to get a chance to breathe for longer than five days last 3 years, although in the end he had to give up. Dokterpun finally succumbed to cancer. In his last breath that he wrote a small letter to God.
The letter is full of teenage Indonesian greatness that expect no tears in the world happened to him, happened to anyone. That statement proved to be a key theme of this novel.
Keke character is a role model for all young people, Keke was a man still young, do not despair, always being grateful and not complain to all the trials he faced. He always tried cheerful in front of the closest people even with all the trials he faced.
Can be seen in section V of "Beautiful Day It Has Come" in the third paragraph, I am grateful for all because it is a trial of God for me.
Big mistake for a friend's ego if more concerned with self-interest, Though his hurt. Should a friend must have a sense of understanding and unity to his own high.
Agnes Davonar, as an experienced author is able to turn the story in chronological order starting from the I samapai XI, and was able to liven up the atmosphere of tension time. In this case, the author often include messages conveyed through the dialogue of the characters, the dialogue as it does not match the setting.
In spite of these defects, the presence of a Novel "Small Letters To God" adds novel circulation in Indonesia. This novel is very dear to us miss simply because it can increase the value of novel moral Indonesian youth.
