When we say narrative structure, this means that it is narrating something that happened in a sequence of events. Therefore, the answer for this would be option D. The way in which James Baldwin used a narrative structure is in the essay that tells a story about the narrators relationship with his father. Hope this answer helps.

The correct option is D.

Narrative structure has to do with the content of a story and the manner that the author use to tell the story. It is a type of framework that form the basis of the order in which a narrative work is presented to the readers. James Baldwin, in his novel,'The Note of a Native Son' the author assumes the position of a narrator and talked about the type of relationship he had with his father and how the happenings around him was pushing him to live his life like that of his father.
