You can do this in automator quite easily. You need to have the text
file opened up in text edit. You make a workflow with these actions.
Get text from text edit document, text to audio file, and import files
in to itunes. This should do what you want.

Hi Everyone
Is there a program to convert a text file to a spoken audio file?
I'd like to make iPod audiobooks out of my book collection, which I
currently have as straight text files. Is there a program that
serves this purpose? I know I can use say in a terminal window, but
that converts to AIFF which takes up a great deal of disk space.
Thanks
