D

Answer to Question 2

In classical narrative structures, we are generally aware of a shaping hand in the
storyline. Boring gaps in the narrative are edited out by a discreet storyteller, who keeps a
low profile yet still keeps the action on track, moving toward a specific destinationthe
resolution of the story's central conflict. In formalistic narratives, the author is overtly
manipulative, sometimes scrambling the chronology of the story or heightening or
restructuring events to maximize a thematic idea. The story is told from a subjective
perspective.
