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.
