Which narration presents events from outside any character's inner thoughts, offering no access to inner experiences?

• A. First Person
• B. Third Person Limited
• C. Third Person Omniscient
• D. Objective Narration

Answer: (D)

The idea here is how much a narrator reveals about characters’ inner experiences. An objective narration sticks to external events and dialogue, like a camera recording the scene. It never discloses what a character is thinking or feeling inside unless that emotion is shown through action or speech. So readers infer thoughts and motives from what characters do or say, not from any inner narration.

This fits the description of presenting events from outside any character’s inner thoughts and offering no access to inner experiences.

In contrast, the other narration styles either reveal a character’s thoughts (first person, which uses I and often shares inner reflections) or provide access to a character’s mind (third person limited follows one character’s inner experiences; third person omniscient can reveal multiple characters’ thoughts).
