''Alice in Blunderland: An Iridescent Dream'' is a novel by John Kendrick Bangs, written in 1907 and published by Doubleday, Page & Co. of New York. It is a political parody of Lewis Carroll's two books, ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' and ''Through the Looking-Glass''. It is critical of economic issues such as taxation, corporate greed, and corruption. Instead of entering Wonderland, Alice finds herself in "Blunderland", which is also described as "Municipal Ownership Country". The book features line drawings after the originals by John Tenniel which were drawn by Albert Levering. In 1902, Bangs had written a book inspired by ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'', called ''Rollo in Emblemland''. ==Plot== Alice travels to Blunderland where nothing is supposed to be, children live in the Municipal House of the Children and the Duchess and the City are their parents. We find in this novel all the familiar characters made famous by Alice in Wonderland: the dormouse, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat and others.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/alice-in-blunderland-an-iridescent-dream-john-kendrick-bangs/1100283588 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alice in Blunderland: An Iridescent Dream」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
