About this listen

A story of an animal burrowing underground to build its own house for protection, survival, and comfort while still focused on enemies that may attack while scooping up smaller critters for his own benefit and survival in an interesting parallel with the remarkable insights of Kafka.

This is lazily made, very clearly recorded in one take, with terrible mic work (very loud as he sits forward, quiet when he sits back) as the indifferent reader stumbles over lines and words, pausing (for seconds, in silence) to read what's in front of him, and picking up where he left off. No retakes. No understanding of the text. No interest in what's coming out of his mouth. Just a bloke with a book he's never read before, flipping pages and monotonously chuntering, without a thought to punctuation, intonation, performance, professionalism, comprehension or - and this is really upsetting - the common courtesy to re-take bad moments.

I didn't know people were allowed to charge for this kind of thing.
