The excerpt which uses a parenthetical remark to create a conversational style is: A. She in turn had told him - indeed, had summoned him in order to entrust him with - another story, one from long ago, before the Civil War.
A parenthetical remark can be defined as a statement that is spoken or written in addition to the main part of a sentence but it is not essential to it. Thus, a parenthetical remark is used by a writer or speaker to either explain or qualifies what is being talked about, without changing the grammatical structure or meaning of the original sentence.
<u>Note:</u> A parenthesis is denoted or represented by this symbol (-).
In this context, "She in turn had told him - indeed, had summoned him in order to entrust him with - another story, one from long ago, before the Civil War" is an excerpt which contains an additional sentence that doesn't change the grammatical structure or meaning of the original sentence.

Narrow means <span> having a small distance from one side to the other. This could be related to suffocation due to the small space. Hope this answers the question.</span>
