Oblomov by Ivan Goncharov for the Tuesday Book Club from P-Wave Press
This week’s #TuesdayBookClub is Oblomov by Ivan Goncharov—a comic, melancholic novel about a man who can't get out of bed and a class in decline. A quiet masterpiece that feels oddly relevant in the age of curated feeds and digital retreat.

One of 10 fine books read, reread or reviewed in 2024. Read The Brothers Karamazov again in a new translation. Can’t make out which is better, old or new. Hurrah for #Dostoevsky!

Splashed out on this beautiful edition of War and Peace a) because I love Everyman books and b) because it's going to be much easier to read in 3 vols.
