Additional research on which of the following would most likely help you discover an author's purpose and message? A. A poem the main character has printed out and framed on her bedside table
B. A book's publication date being being the year before catastrophic national event
C. An author's decision to name the novel after the fictional town where the novel takes place
D. The main character's name being the same as his grandfather's

A

Explanation:

Soo if the main character has a poem framed on her bedside table it's clearly very important to them, hence the protection and proximity to where they sleep (where they're also most vulnerable ig). Researching the poem would provide insight to the main character themselves, and since they're the main character then it's likely that their decisions and journey are important to the message the author is trying to convey? If that makes sense?

hope this helps!
