This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online. They are the following:
A. allusion
B. stream of consciousness
C. dramatic monologue
D. dramatic dialogue
Answer:
The type of narration the excerpt is an example of is:
B. stream of consciousness.
Explanation:
Stream of consciousness is a technique used in literature that tries to imitate, so to speak, the way our thoughts flow. Thus, sentences follow sentences almost uninterruptedly, sometimes connected in their ideas, sometimes shifting abruptly. This technique is the one being used in the excerpt we are analyzing here.
The passage is from the poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot. Notice how the speaker makes sure to use only commas to separate the sentences. His intention is to show that one thought led to the other, that led to the next one, and so on. It is as if we are in the speaker's mind, thinking what he thinks, seeing what he sees.
