What is the author's style in Memories of My Melancholy Whores by Gabriel Garcia Marquez?

The language of the novel is simple English. The novel was originally written in Spanish and was translated into English. Due to this, the English can at times be stilted, as though the translator was unable to find adequate words to express what the author intended. There are also a great number of Spanish phrases that remain intact in the novel, as well as slang that is typical of Spanish but unfamiliar in English. The language of the novel is clear, despite its translation, and easy for readers of all ages to understand.
