Jennifer Egan won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2011 with the committee stating the book was “an inventive investigation of growing up and growing old in the digital age, displaying a big-hearted curiosity about cultural change at warp speed”. Do you agree with this statement? Do you think this is Pulitzer Prize material?
