Literary nonfiction combines factual nonfiction content with literary (storytelling) techniques. "Notes of a Native Son" is nonfiction (based on real experiences/observations) and uses storytelling elements (like narrative structure, personal anecdotes) to convey ideas. Option B is wrong as it's not fictional. Option C's author's other works don't define literary nonfiction. Option D's literary references aren't the key to literary nonfiction classification.
