Close and distant narrative styles are all a third-person characterization.

Distant third-person characterization is describing the internal state of the character using the narrator's objective voice. It is keeping the POV character at an increased narrative distance from the reader, with the third-person narrator (the author, or the unnamed godlike narrator) working as the middleman.

Close third-person characterization is portraying the internal state of the character using the character's subjective voice. It is pulling the reader as close to the POV character as possible, in an attempt to eliminate narrative distance, by making the narrative appear to come directly from within the character himself.

In distant narrative style, the narrator and character is distinctive while in close narrative style, the narrator and character melds into one.

Answer from: mitetwojr

Narrative distance refers to the difference between the character's points of view and the reader's point of view. Close and Distant narrative styles are both third-person styles of writing. Distant Narrating would be when the narrator is outside of the events of the story. A close narrator is one that would take part in the events of a story. I think it would be appropriate to use Distant narrating when you just need to get a quick overview of the story. This would be effective in this way because it would be easier to tell the whole story. It would be appropriate to use Close narrating when you want to get closer to the emotions of the characters. You couldn't effectively get close to the character's emotions from a distance. This would b effective because you would get insight into the emotions and thoughts of the narrator taking part in these events.
