If we shut down the conversation about literature when it starts, then yes we'll never discuss it ;) I'm always pleased to see posts on literature show up on the HN[0], but often disappointed to see so few comments. But enough people are up-voting them that they do regularly appear on the front page, so there's clearly enough interest around here.
