George Sterling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia George Sterling posing for an illustration of Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. George Sterling (1869-1926), was born in Sag Harbor, Long Island, New York.

Literary San Francisco - George Sterling At Coppa's, the bohemian rendezvous on the famed Montgomery Block in San Francisco, Sterling's lines, "the blue-eyed vampire, sated at her feast / Smiles bloodily against the leprous moon" were inscribed on the wall-length mural, his name beside such immortals as Dante, Goethe and Rabelais. Sterling himself was to end the trend, and his suicide by ingestion of cyanide in 1926 was perhaps the archetypal response to the city's turn-of-the-century bohemianism. It wasn't that George Sterling was fundamentally misguided, or that his enthusiastic group of followers lacked sustainable talents, but the enchantment of California, and especially San Francisco, seemed to tempt artists into premature self-congratulation. www.shapingsf.org /ezine/lit/sterling.html   (929 words)
