More about the book

Exploring the themes of lethargy and existential crisis, the novel centers on Ilya Ilyich Oblomov, an upper middle-class man who succumbs to a state he calls "Oblomovism," leading to a life of inactivity and introspection. Through flashbacks and the contrasting character of Andrey Stoltz, Goncharov vividly depicts Oblomov's decline and its implications. Celebrated for its candid portrayal of the Russian gentry's slothfulness, this work remains a significant piece of Russian and psychological literature, presented in a quality edition.
