About this listen

Oblomov is the best known novel by Russian writer Ivan Goncharov, first published in 1859. Oblomov is also the central character of the novel, often seen as the ultimate incarnation of the superfluous man, a symbolic character in 19th-century Russian literature. Oblomov was compared to Shakespeare's Hamlet as answering "No!" to the question "To be or not to be?" Oblomov is a young, generous nobleman who seems incapable of making important decisions or undertaking any significant actions. Throughout the novel he rarely leaves his room or bed and famously fails to leave his bed well into the novel. The book was considered a satire of Russian nobility whose social and economic function was increasingly in question in mid-19th century Russia.

Fantastic, can easily listen to this book at 1.5-2x the speed if proficient in Russian. Listened to this novel before travelling to Russia and believe this really enhanced my trip as it got me into a mindset of 19th century Russia, including scenes set in the city, country side, and talk of travel to Europe. #Audible1
