Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Although choice d also mentions a writer who
has died, it does not state that one of the writer's books was published after
her death, only that she received an award. Choice a states that Richard wasn't
around to see the early reviews of his novel, therefore implying that Richard
died before the book was published. The other two options depict living
writers.
