Who Extinguished the Fire And Other Poems is an up-to-date collection of Turyatemba's verse. The new collection comprises fourteen groupings of poems on a variety of subjects.

Turyatemba defies the myth that poetry is complicated and cannot be understood. We can easily recognize both our private and public systems in this collection." Dr. Mildred K. Barya. "In crafting his poems, Turyatemba makes idiom his mainstay and in so doing he breathes life into the most common sayings. His poems work like riddles throwing perplexing questions at the reader. He truly is in deep conversation with his audience. His wide exploration of the African condition makes an important contribution to both our literary and philosophical thinking." - Dr. Susan Kiguli. "Coming from a literary student of Economics, these poems are very rich in one of the essential features of poetry - economy. Also rich in figurative or picture language, most of the poems are witty depictions of the nice and nasty contradictions in the physical environment as well as in the personal, cultural, social and political contexts explored by the poet." - Professor Timothy Wangusa. Cover design by Grace Bithum and Robert Bigirwenkya.
