Change of Heart (novel) - Style

Style

Change of Heart is written such that each chapter is from the point of view of one of the characters, either Maggie, Michael, Lucius, or June. According to Picoult, it was set up like the Four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

The overall concept of the book; namely the prisoner's supernatural abilities, bunkmates, bringing a dead back to life, healing etc. seem to be similar to The Green Mile (1996), by Stephen King. One of the inmates nicknames Bourne as "Green Mile."
