Millay's Fatal Interview love affair began in 1928 while at the University of Chicago on a reading tour. She immediately fell in love and began a relationship with the recently graduated, yet critically acclaimed poet who introduced her, George Dillon. She was 36, married, and living at her country estate in Austerlitz, New York, while George was 22 and working as the associate editor of the important magazine Poetry in Chicago. The relationship was striking for several reasons other than immediacy, age, and marital status: Millay's husband, believing with her in the concept of open marriage condoned the relationship, and the book Fatal Interview that followed the affair to its end was published only three years after its start.
