Query: Pulitzer Prize Winner......really??

I was irritated by certain aspects of this book, namely, the character of Maggie. She is a self absorbed, interfering, scheming, immature person. Ira was almost unaware of himself and really didn't lend much to anything in the story. Everytime Maggie did something that didn't work out the way she perceived it, it was almost telegraphed; you could see it coming a mile away. It just seemed to plod along. I was expecting these profound discoveries about themselves as a person and hoped that it would evoke a little change in themselves. The characters ended up exactly the same as they had always been. I am a little dumbfounded that this was a Pulitzer Prize winner.
