Very homophobic author. If he wrote his homophobia into this book specifically (which I don't think he did, but it's in the rest of his works), it's subtle, but don't buy it firsthand.

As well as single mention of antishemetizem, a jewished character referd as big nosed, and the author IS antishemitic and donated to antishemitic causes in the past.
I do recommend the book, but buy second hand

the ending is open for interpretation. The ending is rough but have some optimistic ending.
[Major plot spoilers] Id say that giving the character a chance to help recovering the alien spicies is a good ending. It could have been a lot worse, ending with the genocide, the same way the short story have ended.
