There is one character who is very racist but this character is framed in a negative way, and is expressly shown to be in the wrong. The novel is supposed to be a criquite of british imperialism, decribing the dirty ways of the british empire set against multiple subplots that involve the protagonist/anti hero

the protagonist/anti-hero does commit suicide though it is not described in super graphic detail (describing in detail the process and/or any gore)
