Many writing styles are possible and some are really hard to follow. There is a book by James Joyce titled Portrait of the artist as a young man. In this short book he uses direct quotation of thought. This is very difficult to follow since thoughts often do not follow chronological order, but jump around to events that are related at random. This why James Joyce is tough to read, even for native English speakers. English is my 3rd language, but it is the one I have spoken the longest. As such I do not have the full command of nuance and depth in any language I speak, even my own. At least I can fail in 3 languages and sound good doing it, lol.
