Right, I figured that's probably what you meant. One thing that had moderate success for me was searching for "book about flies" in comments, since this story is more likely to get mentioned in stories that are related. (bemused thought: what would a PageRank-like algorithm turn up if it were driven by HN comments linking to other HN threads?)

Of course, this is a much noisier way to search, as it also picks up mentions of Lord of the Flies.
