What is the author's style in Brick Lane by Monica Ali?

The story in Brick Lane is told mainly in the third person, from Nazneen's point of view. The reader sees all the major and minor characters through her eyes. As she becomes more mature, so do her observations. We thus get to see the other characters in more depth as the novel progresses. The back-story of the novel comes from Nazneen's memories and daydreams.
