What is the author's style in The Golden Bowl by Henry James?

James tends to write in long, complex sentences in which it is easy for the reader to get lost. In addition, these long complex sentences deal with the complexity of the human mind and its changing opinions and emotions. It is as if James tries to capture the internal workings of the mind as it works through the emotions and drawbacks of the situations in which it finds itself and put these workings down on paper. Although there are instances where the reader knows that a great deal of time has passed between one incident and another, it is almost impossible to determine when actually things are happening as there is little or no reference to time. It is only known at the end of the novel that about four years have passed since the marriage of Maggie and the Prince.
