about this book

Resolution of intractable problems around the world requires understanding ordinary people as well as leaders. This street-level view of Northern Ireland provides the best explanation of the twenty-five-year conflict.

“For those puzzled by Northern Ireland, Belfast Diary offers a well-written, sympathetic and clear-eyed view.” -New York Times Book Review

“Mr. Conroy’s account is suffused with an ominous tension. . . . He eschews the reductive, and succeeds in mounting a disturbing case.” -New Yorker

“A sensitive and perceptive chronicle . . .” -London Times
