    (Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2014-12) Bates-Hardy, Courtney Morgan; Wall, Kathleen; Ruddick, Nicholas; Purdham, Medrie; Butler, Jenna
    Sea Foam is a collection of fairy tale poems. These poems draw from the themes, characters, and types of various fairy tales, ranging from the well-known tales of the Grimm Brothers and Charles Perrault to lesser-known tales from older or more obscure sources. The first section features the mermaid as a symbol of transformation. The second section focuses on fairy tales about the fear of change and the dangers of stasis. Finally, the third section tells the story of a woman who sees her life as a series of fairy tales. Sea Foam focuses on the theme of transformation in order to demonstrate the continuing relevance of fairy tales to our lives.
