The Boy with Fire in His Mouth (Epiphany Editions, 2014).
“Woolfitt blurs boundaries between poetry and prose as easily as he blurs the borders between countries. The characters here possess a dizzying array of problems, an equally broad array of passions, but Woolfitt casts an empathetic, lyrical eye on each person, each story.” – Caitlin Horrocks, author of This Is Not Your City
