Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. E, C, D, B, A
Explanation
The Dumb Dancer (1961) → Goa (1964) → Marriage Poem (Three Plays, 1969) → Mister Behram (staged 1987, pub. 1988) → Tara (staged 1990, pub. 1995).
Note: Option 3 is garbled in the source and its printed key ('D, E, C, B, A') cannot be right, since Marriage Poem (1969) postdates The Dumb Dancer (1961). Option 3 is given here in its correct order.
