Question

If, as a reader, you get information in a novel about important action happening on the other side of town about which the main character is unaware, you are experiencing _____.

Answer 1

I am pretty sure the answer is dramatic irony. Dramatic irony is where the audience knows more than character/s, and if you know what is happening on the other side of town but the character does not then you are experiencing Dramatic Irony. I hope this helped!
