Is this primarily an existential novel or is existential element only forms a small part of the overall theme?

As a side note, did( if you've read) the novel reach into the deepest well of your soul?

Did it deserve the Pulitzer Prize it won back in 2010? (or 2009, can't remember exactly)

Is it Faulkneresque? ( Prose structure wise)

Do you consider it as a masterpiece?

Last but not least: Who is superior language wise: Harding or JK Rowling?

I thank you all.
