>It was while gliding through these latter waters that one serene and moonlight night, when all the waves rolled by like scrolls of silver; and, by their soft, suffusing seethings, made what seemed a silvery silence, not a solitude: on such a silent night a silvery jet was seen far in advance of the white bubbles at the bow. Lit up by the moon, it looked celestial; seemed some plumed and glittering god uprising from the sea.

Why is this considered a "difficult" book?

About a quarter of the way through, really enjoying it. Does it get a lot more challenging in the middle and later chapters? I've heard it's a difficult read but it's been a breeze so far.
