Anthology audio #1

To keep myself motivated about actually making an audio file for each of the things in the anthology, I've decided to start a series of posts here!  I'll record something new every day (unless I already have an acceptable version of the work) from the anthology, probably just in the order that it appears in that book.

For today, there is the Babel text.
