The House of Splendid Isolation: A Novel - Irish Historical Fiction for Book Clubs & Literature Lovers" （注：根据SEO优化原则，我保留了原书名作为核心关键词，添加了"Irish Historical Fiction"这一更具体的分类关键词，并增加了"Book Clubs & Literature Lovers"的使用场景说明。这个标题既保持了文学作品的完整性，又增加了搜索可见度和目标读者吸引力。）

The IRA character, McGreevy, has lost a lot including his wife and daughter, but believes there are no alternatives to his participation in "the armed struggle." Unfortunately, there were very few ways for someone like him to live a peaceful life, which is by no means his fault. Sure, he is responsible for his actions, but so are those governing Northern Ireland.I wish I could say, to someone like him, peace, out now, but I am not sure I can do that.Read this disturbing book. Edna O'Brien is brilliant.
