Well, there are subsets of literature in every country that can perfectly reinforce whichever bias one might have towards the people of that country, especially that towards bleakness and nihilism.

But it would never cross my mind to paint e.g. whole modern Germany bloodthirsty and nihilist based on the works of Friedrich Nietzsche, Richard Wagner, Stefan George, Ernst Jünger and the like, for God blessed me with discernment and understanding that any country is a cauldron where wildly different people collide and try to survive the boiling.
