Which excerpt from "Lather and Nothing Else" is the best example of fast-paced narration?
O The lather was drying on his face. I must hurry, Through the mirror, I took a look at the street
O "Very good," I answered, turning my attention now to the brush. The man closed his eyes wearily and awaited the cool
caress of the lather
Meanwhile he was taking off his cartridge-studded belt with the pistol holster suspended from it. He put it on a hook in the
wardrobe and hung his cap above it
He leaned back in the chair when he saw the brush in my hand, full of lather I had not yet put the sheet on him.

O The lather was drying on his face. I must hurry, Through the mirror, I took a look at the street .

Explanation:

The style or manner of the pacing of a story can change how the narrative is read. Fast-paced narration provides a sense of urgency and suspense at the same time, giving the readers the chills and holds their attention, ever ready for anything that might happen.

In the given excerpts from the short story Lather and Nothing Else by Hernando Tellez, the form of narrative is fast-paced when the revolutionary barber describes the lather on the face of the Captain. His nervousness, his inability to decide what to do, whether he should kill the man accountable for the many deaths of his revolutionary brothers, the man who is adamant about hunting them all down, and his indecisiveness contrasted with the time he has left with the captain as a customer.

The fast-paced narration is when he surveyed the streets and his indecisiveness on whether to kill the captain while he is unarmed or to let him go.  Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
