It dramatizes his drift into protest against the world of education and the sober, established society of his parents, his depression, and eventually murder-cum-suicide. It was inspired by a real-life incident (as were several of her works) and Oates had been acquainted with the model of her protagonist. She revisited this subject in the title story of her collection <i>Last Days: Stories</i> (1984). "In the Region of Ice" won the first of her two <a href="/wiki/O._Henry_Award" title="O.
