What is the author's style in the novel, What To Do About The Solomons?

Though the primary language of the novel is English, the text has a prominent usage of the Hebrew language. This is done primarily to immerse the reader in the universe of the kibbutz and the other Jewish characters. Hebrew phrases are used on a continuous basis and create an atmosphere where Jewish identity and culture stands out. Along with Hebrew, the tone and style shifts depending on character and place. For someone like Joseph, the thoughts are less complicated since he is a child, and the language reflects his maturity level. By contrast, Yakov's character is more spastic and the reader is privy to energetic language used to describe him. Similarly, Carolyn's drug-fueled funk is expressed through slower language and muddled diction of her thoughts.
