- timing- "it started in her uterus and moved up to her lungs" -what are the odds?
- "succinct" or "compressed", it uses crisply drawn impressions from seemingly fleeting images to make both settings and characters leap off the page. although often heavy with simile. His sentence structure is short, often fragmentary in some works, and he writes comfortably both in the 1st and 3rd persons, and in the present and past tenses. His dialogue is attributed only enough to keep clear who is speaking but otherwise allows the reader to draw inferences on tone and motivation.
