Best Answer

The basic features of a narrative include an orientation, complication and resolution.

An orientation is to introduce the audience to the basic "Who, What, When, Where, Why and How" of the story. It gives the setting, paints the original picture and, with hope, draws in the audience.

The complication is usually the main part of the story. It's what goes wrong, how they fix it and why they fix it. The complication is that big main part, grab ahold of the middle section of a thick enough book and that's it. Complications are not necessarily "complications" - it doesn't always have to be a problem, that's just what it's called.

The resolution is the end of the story. It's where the author ties up all the loose ends, (or not, depending on the author and the story) to leave the audience feeling as though the story is either over, or is able to continue on in their head.

What are the types of narratives in stories?

This question is too vague. We could talk about first-person narratives, third-person narratives and third-person omniscient narratives. We could talk about narratives written in the past tense and those written in the present tense and those which cannot make up their minds. We could talk about quest-type narratives, or mystery-type narratives, or romance-type narratives, or conflict-type narratives. We could distinguish between mundane narratives, epic narratives, and mythic narratives. There are lots of possibilities here.
