The novel "Oblomov" is one of the key works of 19th-century Russian literature, written by Ivan Alexandrovich Goncharov. At the center of the narrative is the image of Ilya Ilyich Oblomov, a nobleman mired in apathy and inaction. Through the contrast between the main character and his friend Stolz, the author explores the problem of "Oblomovism"—a social phenomenon characterized by inertia, laziness, and inability to act.
