The answer is D- The narrator is an all-knowing observer who can inform of what every character thinks and feels. Jack London tells the story of Buck "The Call of the Wild" It is a mixed-breed dog that begins his life as a pet becomes the leader of a wolf pack in the wild. The author concentrates only on the character of Buck. He explains Bucks´s perspective and tells the story through his experience. Interestingly, London’s narrative revolves closely around Buck and his thoughts. Yet Buck is not a person and its struggles in the wild world are told by a third person, omniscient narrator. The thoughts or emotions of other characters are not included, and only the actions of other characters are described when the main character is present or learns of them second-hand.
