Stream of Consciousness describes writing that mainly focuses on:

• A. A linear, plot-driven narrative
• B. A third-person objective narration
• C. The narrator's direct account of political events
• D. The internal thoughts and mental processes of a character

Answer: (D)

Stream of consciousness is a narrative approach that concentrates on the character's inner life—their thoughts, feelings, sensations, and mental processes as they unfold. This technique aims to reveal the flow of awareness directly, rather than focusing on external events or a polished plot. That’s why it best describes writing that centers on internal experiences rather than on what happens in the world or how it is narrated from an outside viewpoint. A linear, plot-driven narrative emphasizes sequence of actions and events. A third-person objective narration presents only observable actions and dialogue, not the character’s private thoughts. A direct account of political events foregrounds external happenings and events rather than inner experience. Stream of consciousness prioritizes the character’s internal life, often using interior monologue and fluid, sometimes unstructured thought patterns to mirror actual thinking. This helps readers feel the texture of consciousness and psychological depth.
