Which of the following resources could BEST serve as a book for a 'narrative writing' class?

Option 2 : A fictional novel

Narrative Writing: Narratives are intrinsic to human nature. Everyone likes a story well-told. From time immemorial, human beings have been telling stories from generation to generation. Stories entertain and tell us about ourselves and the world. They feed into our imagination. Narratives are also written to teach and change attitudes.

• Narrative writing in its simplest form must have plot, setting, and characterization. The events that take place in a story give rise to a plot. The time and location in which a story takes place is the setting.
• The writer presents the personality of a character through what he/she says, does, from other people’s opinions and his/her own attitudes towards this character. This is called characterization.
• Narratives come in different forms. They include fairy tales, detective stories, mysteries, romance dramas, horror stories, adventure stories, fables, myths, historical narratives, science fiction, films, documentaries, television soap operas, diary entries, and so on.
• A fictional novel could BEST serve as a book for a 'narrative writing' class. A novel is defined on the basis of how close it is to realities, whereas Fiction is purely an art of imagination.
• The 'novel' as a genre is not easy to define, due to its extremely open and flexible form. A novel is a narrative work of prose fiction that tells a story about specific human experiences over a considerable length.

From the above points, we can conclude that a fictional novel could BEST serve as a book for a 'narrative writing' class.
