Troubles, a 1970 novel by J. G. Farrell. It's set during the time of the Irish War of Independence, with a dilapidated resort hotel and eccentric family standing in symbolically for the social and economic breakdowns wrought by the upheval. An excellent read, and was also made into an excellent multi-part British television drama in 1988.
