Georg Heym

I was "Stumbling" around the Net and hit upon this interesting post about 20 great artists who did not make it to 30.

I could certainly tweak the list big-time, but I was intrigued with #10, Georg Heym.

I Googled him and found a lot of truly interesting stuff. His poetry, even translated, is pretty compelling. Here is a good example.

The above link also contains a lot of good info, including the tragic circumstances of his t0o-young death.
