The statement that is NOT true about Modernist writing is Reflected only one perspective and voice.

Explanation:

Modernist writing reflects a general malaise among most intellectuals and artists after WWI when the enormity of the war had people disillusioned with the processes of industrialization and urbanization and the world seemed darker and much-changed. There was a general disillusionment in the foundations of humankind. One example of a modernist novel with many perspectives and voices is James Joyce's Ulysses. The narrative is always moving from one character's mind to another's in different streams of consciousness.
