The correct answer is B. The narrator recognizes that war is cruel, unjust, and inescapable

Explanation:

In literature, the word characterization refers to the way the characters and in some cases the narrator are presented to the reader including their personality traits, physical feature, believes and ideas. In the case of indirect characterization, the characters are not described directly, but their actions and ideas suggest the way they are or think. Considering this, in the case of the excerpt presented from "A Farewell to Arms" the narrator and main character is speaking to Passini another character as he believes the war needs to finish but also claims they need to continue fighting and defeat the opposing side to end with the war as otherwise, he believes if they are defeated the enemy will still persecute them and go back to war. This means the narrator believes the war is cruel and unjust as in any case people would be killed and persecuted; however, the narrator stills supports the idea of keep fighting so they would get the victory over those being defeated. Thus, the words and ideas from the narrator as part of indirect characterization mainly reveal the narrator recognizes that war is cruel, unjust, and inescapable.
