Not really. He just fucks some legless woman in a trash dump from memory. I always felt heavy oedipal overtones too.

Why is her face so unnerving?
It's not that I think she's ugly, in fact she's probably attractive, but there's just something about it that unsettles me.

Also i'd recommend Of Mice and Men.

This but seriously. I know a girl with a 9/10 body and a face that could theoretically be gorgeous but she can’t find a boyfriend and has low self esteem because her face is just unconsciously uncanny for men.
