This chapter, it took me awhile go get through it. Poor Oblomov! Poor Zakhar! Oblomov reminds me of a whole generation of 30 somethings that don’t quite know why life isn’t going the way they expected. I want to shake Oblomov, yet at the same time I can see where he is coming from. He’s an orphan and he feels alone. But he seems well liked. Nothing about him seems to stop a good number of people from dropping by to see him and requesting his company for all kinds of fun things.
