What is the author's style in The Middleman by Bharati Mukherjee?

The Middleman is narrated in the first person (restricted) point of view, meaning that the events of the story are presented from the perspective of one character in the story, in this case Alfie Judah. This first-person narrative is important to Mukherjee's concern with immigrant Americans struggling to formulate a sense of self and a sense of cultural identity within their new environment.
