Point of view

Do you think the auhtor writes in the tone of 3rd person limited?
The author writes in the point of three person view because Lennie and George are told as if it was a conserveation. The other characters are written as if it was also a conversation between thwm. It isnt written as 1st person central because one person isnt just telling the story it has parts in which the dialouge between Lennie and George is as each person speking but then it goes back to 3rd person limited.
