I thoroughly enjoyed the first half or so of the novel; James shows many interesting differences between American and European perspectives, and he does so in a very elegant way. The second half becomes somewhat melodramatic. I don't want to give anything away, so I'm not going to go into details here. The ending was surprising, and I think satisfactory.
The overarching style is Realism, but there are several Romantic elements, and interestingly a lot of Gothic elements as well. The Bellegarde family, including their manners, their secrecy, and their homes, is Gothic. Newman though is modern, rational, and realistic. ( )
