What is the author's style in Storyteller by Leslie Marmon Silko?

"Storyteller" is a lesson in the fine points of narration and point of view. The story is narrated by an external narrator, that is, by a voice not belonging to an actor with a role in the story. Thus, the characters in the story are referred to in the third person: "she," "he" or "they." (If the narrator were involved in, or "internal" to the story, then the first-person forms of "I" or "we" would be used.) However, this outside narrator does not necessarily provide the reader with an objective outlook on events.
