how does faulkner tell a story from different angles in as i lay dying?

a. by telling the story through an unbiased, all - knowing character
b. by having more than one character tell the same story
c. by using addies point of view both before and after dying
d. by employing a narrator who has split personality disorder

Explanation:

Faulkner uses multiple narrators (15 different characters) in As I Lay Dying to present the Bundren family’s journey from distinct, biased perspectives. This multi-voiced approach allows the story to be told from different angles, unlike a single all-knowing narrator (A), Addie’s limited posthumous narration (C), or a split-personality narrator (D). Option B directly describes this technique.

Answer:

B. By having more than one character tell the same story
