Is it about psychology or is it a simple language skill?

How to write complex, yet beautiful, sentences like this one:

Notwithstanding his excessive fatigue, prodigious cerebral activity kept him in a thrill, ceaselessly unwinding the same coil of ideas.”

-Emile Zola, The Human Beast

Well, my question is serious in the sense that I’m not asking “How to be a perfect novelist?”, what I’m asking is “Does there exist a regal road to make one self write sentences like that, if one wishes to?

Is it about how a particular brain works? Or anyone can learn to think and express like that?
