Query: Horrid book by a heartless woman

I was given this book to read shortly after coming out to a relative, back in the early nineties. What a cruel joke that was. Luckily, my relative has since learned how terrible that move was. A large portion of this book is dedicated to Ms. Johnson's gay son and the "burden" placed upon her by his very being. She is proud to say that she has estranged herself from him. There's nothing funny, sweet, or even mildly loving about that.
