Title: In Guilt and in Glory by David Hanly
Summary: In Guilt and in Glory is a novel that explores modern Ireland through the eyes of an American television crew making a documentary about the country. The crew is guided by two Irish men: a young government public relations officer and an older Dublin novelist. As they travel across Ireland, they encounter people from different backgrounds and witness the country's political tensions, history, culture, and social changes. 
The novel challenges romantic stereotypes of Ireland, particularly those held by some Irish Americans, who view the country through myths rather than reality. Through conversations, debates, and the experiences of the travellers, Hanly examines issues such as nationalism, the legacy of conflict, the influence of the media, and the clash between tradition and modernization. 
Rather than focusing only on the Northern Ireland Troubles, the novel presents a broader picture of Irish identity in the late 1970s. It shows Ireland as a complex nation with both pride and problems, encouraging readers to question simplistic or sentimental views of the country.
