Read the words

Anthony DeCurtis had a piece in the New York Times yesterday, called “Peace, Love, and Charlie Manson” — Anthony’s contemplation of 1969, partly written in response to Arlo Guthrie’s recent assertion that other than Woodstock there wasn’t really anything else to remember from that year. Because I’ve been on the road a lot, and knew I wouldn’t be able to take time to read the piece on paper or on screen, I decided to use Read the Words to make a quick audio version of it — read by a one of the Read the Words avatars, “Tom.” Tom misses his share of pronunciation but I’m at least going to hear the piece twice tomorrow when I’m on the road again. You can hear Tom read Anthony’s piece here.
