Abstract

This study is an attempt to analyze the diverse postulates of style and technique in western novel. Style and technique have undergone great creativity and phenomenal stylistic prolixity, as such they are considered to be most elusive and often ambiguous. It is difficult, therefore, to highlight the overall stylistic and technical postulates in a precise and exact manner. This is specially because each writer has his or her own personal style and technique of writing adopted either consciously or unconsciously, resulting in variations of novelistic style. The main objective of this article is to discuss the different aspects of style and technique in western novel.
