[spoiler]OA: C
OG says
for B - 'carefully coordinating...' illogically modifies preceeding noun (book illustrations)
for E - 'them' can't refer to "book illustrations" bcoz the plural noun is the object of the prep in
for C - correct placement of modifying elements; the use of 'which' clearly links the two elements
my doubt: in C - which (pronoun) refers to 'book illustrations' even though its part of prep phrase. But the same rule does not apply to pronoun 'them'.
Is this a general rule that 'which can refer to noun eventhough its part of a preposition phrase whereas 'other pronouns such as 'that/them' do not [/spoiler]
