The complex and fluid nature of characters' identities. In the novel, the characters are not simply defined at the start and stay that way. Their identities shift and change as the story progresses, which is in line with postmodern concepts of identity not being fixed and stable.

One way is its fragmented narrative. The story is not told in a linear fashion, which is a common postmodern trait. It jumps between different time periods and perspectives, making the reader piece together the overall plot. This disrupts the traditional narrative structure and forces the reader to be more actively involved in constructing the meaning of the story.

Postmodern English novels typically have self - reflexivity. This means that the novel is aware of itself as a work of art. For instance, 'Midnight's Children' plays with the idea of storytelling and how history is told. They also often use intertextuality, referring to other texts. In 'White Teeth', there are references to different cultural and literary works. Moreover, they tend to have unreliable narrators, as seen in 'Atonement', which adds an element of doubt and complexity to the story.
