Read the following excerpt from part 5 of Zeitoun. It was a test, Zeitoun thinks. Who among us could deny that we were tested? B

ut now look at us, he says. Every person is stronger now. Every person who was forgotten by God or country is now louder, more defiant, and more determined. They existed before, and they exist again, in the city of New Orleans and the United States of America. And Abdulrahman Zeitoun existed before, and exists again, in the city of New Orleans and the United States of America. He can only have faith that will never again be forgotten, denied, called by a name other than his own. He must trust, and he must have faith. And so he builds, because what is building, and rebuilding and rebuilding again, but an act of faith? There is no faith like the faith of a builder of homes in coastal Louisiana. Which statement best describes the narrative voice of this excerpt? The voice is objective because the events of the story are told without feeling. The voice is objective because it is told from a third-person perspective. The voice is subjective because the narrator offers facts and details of his own experiences. The voice is subjective because the narrator is relating Zeitoun’s opinions and emotions.

Answer: Option D - The voice is subjective because the narrator is relating Zeitoun's opinions and emotions.

Explanation:

It is possible for a third-person narrative to be subjective, and that seems to be the case here. An objective narrator would stick to the facts and facts only of a story. But, from this excerpt, we can tell the narrator is also conveying the character's feeling and thoughts.

In this excerpt, we have a mixture of what the character thinks with what he says. There is also a mixture of pronouns, going from "we" to "he" without any transitions, as if the narrator is not trying to separate himself from the character. That makes the point of view more emotional.

"Zeitoun" is a book by Dave Eggers. It tells the real story of Abdulrahman Zeitoun, a Syrian-American who was arrested for no apparent reason while helping people and animals after Hurricane Katrina hit.
