For a novel written simultaneously with a play making use of the same material, Busman's Honeymoon is remarkably various in its technique. It has the basic structure of omniscient narration with, of course, excellent dialogue scenes but also good occasional interior monologues. It begins with an epistolary prothalamion. And the main text is varied with quotations, epigraphs, Latin tags, and snippets of French (the marriage is consummated in French).
