Are there homophobic slurs?
66 supporters
Yes

There is a character who is homophobic and makes remarks like “ass bandits” (audiobook had that, but it was changed to “faggots” in the kindle version) That character is also a sexist pig who is lazy, not the brightest & cheats on his wife so not written as a person with behaviour to aspire to.
A different character is mad at a male/male couple who are supposedly his friends & he calls them “old queens” but is admonished for it by the person he’s talking to. The couple is portrayed as a normal loving couple otherwise-the book isn’t anti-lgbtq, but it’s definitely of its age.

A man with dementia is admitted to a mental institution instead of the hospital (it’s the 80’s). The depiction of it is negative - both the building and the fellow patients

The type of casual racism common in the 80’s like

This book doesn’t have chapters per se, just sections. Pregnant woman cheats on her husband around page 50.
There are also descriptions of how a different character was a prolific cheater in his first marriage.

Just briefly, a couple having sex in a public place they think is empty are watched by a man. It’s not a stalking situation, the man happened upon them, but didn’t make it known he was there.

Not one of the characters in the novel, but there is a scene in a mental hospital (a man with Dementia was sectioned there) where people with various mental illness are described.
