Not strictly "The Troubles", but Roddy Doyle's A Star Called Henry is set around the Easter Rising, and gives a pretty good oversight into the characters and motivations of the players in 1916, whence The Troubles eventually emerge. I loved that book. The sequel, Oh Play That Thing shoe-horns Henry into New Orleans and the world of Louis Armstrong, and is the worst sequel ever made, including Police Academy 6 and Friday 13th Part 9.
