Could some explain this SC problem?


There is nowhere in early American literature where the influence of Jane Austen is so apparent as the novels of James Fenimore Cooper.

I would go with D

In A - The sentence suggests that the word nowhere is a physical location, which is illogical
In B - The sentence before the comma is modifying nowhere, again this is illogical.
In C - This sentence is wrong on so many levels. It is trying to suggest that Jane Austen herself was in the novels of James Cooper
In D - The Past perfect tense is being used. This is not required as we don't have another action taking place in the past

Hope this helps!

C. It is nowhere more apparent in early American literature that Jane Austen was an influence as in
D. Nowhere in early American literature is the influence of Jane Austen more apparent than in
E. Nowhere in early American literature is it more apparent that Jane Austen had an influence than
Can someone explain this question in details? I am so confused about the inverted sentence.
Thanks in advance!
