How would you characterize the author's style in the book the help

The Help by Kathryn Stockett is written in the first person point of view. The three main voices in the story belong to Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, Minny Jackson, and Aibileen Clark. The chapters are separated by character, each giving a unique point of view.

The book is written in chronological order with some references made to past experiences to fill in the back story and to give details about the lives of the characters, particularly Skeeter and Aibileen. As the book progresses, the lives of the characters overlap regularly until they are telling different sides of the same story.

The Help is set in a time period in which the language is regional and rough, with a heavy influence of slang and mispronounced words. The language used is representative of many aspects of southern life, from upbringing, to race, class, and education. Some of the people who are well educated still use the accepted slang which sometimes seems out of place although it would be acceptable in that time and place.
