What is the author’s purpose in a work of nonfiction?
the reason the author is writing
the thesis statement
the universal topic
the reason an author stops writing

The correct answer to this question is "the universal topic." I'm pretty certain it is C, the universal topic, since that is usually what is gained through reading a work of non-fiction, unlike a fiction where only the main facts are present, with/without a universal topic.

There is no picture or writing
