What is the narrator point of view in the novel, John Crow’s Devil?

The novel is presented in past tense from varying perspectives. The majority of the novel can be read as if a narrator is presenting the details. Even with a narrator, the reader has a limited perspective and some information is never revealed.

The narrator sometimes steps aside for one or more members of the village to take over telling the story. When this happens, the tone and language changes abruptly. The villagers are not named, and their identities are not important. The point of the change is to give the reader a closer look at how the villagers view specific events rather than how Apostle York, Pastor Bligh, or even an uninterested narrator see them.
