When it comes to understanding what theme is, the option that best defines it in relation to a narrative or a novel is as follows:

C. The message about life that the author wants the reader to learn.

<h3 /><h3>What is theme?</h3>

In literary works, theme is the idea, the message behind the work itself. The theme is often not explicit. We can grasp it through the character's actions and decisions when they are faced with conflict.

Notice that the conflicts the characters encounter are the plot, not the theme. But the lessons learned from those conflicts or the feelings and ideas behind them can help define the theme.

Let's think of a famous novel as an example. In "The Great Gatsby," conflicts involve making money through criminal activities, lying and cheating, throwing grand parties, etc. The themes we can grasp from that are the decadency of society, the corruption of the American dream and so on.

With the information above in mind, we can choose letter C as the best definition of theme in a narrative or a novel.
