The Land of Crickets is a historical satire about a boy named

Tommy that was born in 1932, on an Indian farm in Oklahoma.

This story is told by his supernatural self which is a Lysol Baby

that woke up in "The Land of Lysol" at the time of his birth in

1932. The author attempts to show how the standards of human

behavior changed during his lifetime. He describes a land where

God's children are taught to love rather than hate following what

he calls the "The Great Explosion" or the apocalypse.
