When referring to an event or object for which a visual aid is not needed.
I think one characteristic of literature is the narrator and character(s). The narrator is not always the author, but in some cases it can be. The narrator is the person that is recounting and telling the story. This is important and necessary in every story. We also need characters because their actions, thoughts, etc. affect the story and theme and that is what makes up the story. Without characters there is no story.
I believe the answer is B. Anecdote
