Classic Russian novel by Ivan Goncharov, published in 1859.
Great! We have a concept of "oblomov" + suffix "chshina" = oblomovchshina. I love the slow reading of Russian literature by non-Russian readers. I think Russians have to do the same in Russia.
Thank you, and great success with your reading.
Books arrived so I’m ready to go in May
I love the bbc radio adaptation with Toby Jones. It’s a great story and confronted me with my own Oblomov tendencies. Absolutely hilarious too!
I'm excited about this readalong! (as an introvert with an adversarial relationship with my to-do list)
Started it a week ago on the strength of your recommendation, 70 pages in and having a great time so far!
How do I find the notification/ subscription for Mr Campbells Oblomov read along?
I’m in!!!!
