Answer:

The correct answer is option A. He is a wanderer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Referring to the book "Heart of Darkness.", we have a narrator named Charlie Marlow.

The main narrator describes him as someone similar to Buddha. He is someone who sees beyond what he really has in front. He is not a simple seaman like the others. He is an honest and intelligent person, detached from everything material.

The narrator even says it explicitly in the lines “But Marlow was not typical, and to him the meaning of an episode was not inside like a kernel but outside ...” and also “He did not represent his class”.

The main narrator says that unlike the others seaman, Marlow did not lead a sedentary life, but was a wanderer. The way he told his story was very different from the simple way others did it.
