4. Yes, although it took a few readings to begin to "get it".
If I -am- getting it... He alludes to some parental abuse in a "don't ever talk about it" environment, and is caught in that loop, attempting to break out. He's unable to trust or connect with most people, and sees through their mass superficiality, being on the outside, dealing with weightier matters than the rest.

I agree, it is written perfectly from the character's POV. This is also why I couldn't bear "Frannie". It's perfect, but unbearable for the very same reason due to the person being portrayed.
