Sagot :

I think the answer is B: Charles Dickens; renames author.

An appositive  are noun phrases placed side by side. That is the easiest way I could define it.

So, you have the noun Charles Dickens then what follows next is another noun that renames that noun that you just used, which in this case is renames author.

Grammar is WEIRD!!! :)
