Answer:

A. Mr. Wednesday is described as having "a craggy, square face with pale grey eyes" (Gaiman 23).

Explanation:

Parenthetical citations are usually used for in-text citations. When using these citations, no punctuation should be used at the end of the quote. So, C is incorrect because there should not be a comma. The only exceptions to this rule are question marks and exclamation points used in the quote. Additionally, the end quotes should be put at the end of the quote, not after the parenthetical citation. Thus, B is also incorrect. Finally, a period (or comma if it is not the end of a sentence) must be used after the citation; so D is also wrong. Therefore, the only correct answer is A.
