It was definitely a product of its time. The casual approach to racist, antisemitism, and homophobia left me grimacing a good 3rd of the book.
I'm sure it's well written but I couldn't really concentrate on that.

P.S.: There is a single page where the n-word is uttered casually something like 15 times. It doesn't seem malicious, but it's flagrant. Just be aware that if you read this book about problematic people, understand that the author also was a problematic person in a lost world. 8.5/10.
