Tables is Alfred Corn’s eighth poetry collection and the third in Press 53’s Silver Concho Poetry Series, edited by Pamela Uschuk and William Pitt Root. Carolyn Forché, of The Lambda Book Report, says, 'Corn’s formal range is everywhere apparent. He even attempts sapphics in English which closely resemble what might be accomplished in the Greek. But as he understands art to be ’always more than technical virtuosity,’ his poetry never merely displays his considerable poetic skills, but rather becomes a mode of thought, an inquiry into art and passion, the limits of mastery, mortality, divinity, and the possible destiny of the human soul.'
