Oblomov

The novel by I. A. Goncharov about a man immersed in apathy and inaction. The main character embodies the spiritual inertia of the aristocracy against the backdrop of social and ideological shifts. The work touches on themes of loss of... life orientation and emerging nihilism.

Oblomov, a young nobleman, prefers to spend his days in cozy laziness, dreaming of a bright future. In his world, everything is stable: a soft robe, a harmful but devoted servant, and eternal reflections. Everything changes after meeting Olga Ilyinskaya – a smart and determined girl. She intends to change Oblomov's habitual life. But is love capable of waking up one who does not want to wake up?

When Goncharov wrote the first scene of the future novel, no one, not even the author himself, could have imagined that his hero would become a symbol of an entire era, and the word "oblomovshchina" would become a household name.
