The answer is C. a work shorter than a novel but longer than a short story.

Novellas are a type of prose fiction and usually vary from 60 to 120 pages. They present fewer conflicts and less plot complications than novels as well, and no subdivision into chapters. However, that does not mean novellas are not an important literary genre. They allow for more character development than short stories.
