The writer is Dickens so the S belong to the surname. There are 2 possible forms to express a possesive case here.

The most common one would be option D Dickens’. A general rule might be applied where because the noun ends in S we can only add the apostrophe, However, a second possibility is also allowed, It is option B Dickens’s. This option might depend on pronunciation that is why it is not so commonly used.

When I was nineteen, I lived in Costa Rica for a few months. This beautiful country is filled with fruits and flowers growing everywhere. The country is also blessed with rain forests, mountains, and inactive volcanoes. One of my favorite memories is of a time I stayed overnight on the beach with some friends. At about midnight, we decided to stand waist-deep in the warm ocean water. A gentle rain began to fall. We could see lightning flashing in the clouds miles away. Suddenly, we all gasped in amazement. Lines of flickering green light were dancing across the tops of the waves as they rolled toward us. We learned later that the light was caused by tiny glowing animals which live on the ocean's surface. That night was a magical time for us.
