Captcha This!
Captcha This! by J.W. Wood
In 2015, J.W. Wood jacked in his day job and disappeared to homestead two acres on an island off the coast of British Columbia – armed only with an axe, some tools and the determination to free himself. Captcha This!, the result of eight years invested in the middle of nowhere, spares no-one: pompous investment bankers, vacuous fame-hunters, feudal tech overlords, invasive grammar-nazi software, government by bogus statistic and further denizens of today’s digital abyss. www.jwwoodwriter.net
“J.W. Wood’s stories evince a gift for the quotidian, employing brilliant conceits and mischevious turns of phrase which enrich the writing at every point. Capturing the frustration of curtailed lives and the grim horrors of the corporate world, Wood presents a meta-fictional universe in which the rich realise their folly and we control computers, not the other way round.”
– Julian Stannard, award-winning poet and author of The University of Bliss (Sagging Meniscus Press, USA, 2024)
“Captcha This! pulls off a coup in eviscerating the system while not being vicious or cruel to any single person or group.”
– Paul Halas, author of The Rights of Man and Fish
