Answer:

C. People often have an unhealthy infatuation with fame.

Step-by-step explanation:

A theme is the main idea of a literary work. It may be stated directly or indirectly.

It might be a confusion between Theme and Subject. The subject is a topic that acts as the principles of a literary work, while the theme is opinion over that subject.

There are different types of introducing the theme within the stories and is up to the authors to decide which one use. It is the reader´s job to find it.

I hope this answer helps you.
