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.
