Question

Sketch the character of lomov

Answer 1

Lomov was a thirty five year old unmarried man. He anxiously waited to get married because he had reached a critical age. He proposed a girl named Natalya in his neighbourhood. 
Lomov was a strange man. He went to propose Natalya but quarrelled over petty issues like the oxen meadows and pet dogs. He also abused Natalya and her father.

Answer 2

Answer:

Lomov is a man who is of marriageable age. He also suffers from a weak heart

and sleeplessness. So he is desperate to settle down in life, and lead a quiet and

regular life. Despite his ailments, Lomov was a rich and prosperous farmer. This makes

Chubukov secretly wish him to marry his daughter Natalya. As for Lomov, he did not

love her, though he was desperate to have a life partner, and so marry Natalya. Lomov

was however hesitant to ask for her hand from Chubukov. That made him beat around

the bush, argue with Natalya and leave without proposing. Thus, we can find that

Lomov’s conditions overpower the other traits he has. He is an eligible, assertive, rich

bachelor, who will be liked by any girl. However, we also know that he is nervous, lacks

confidence and is prone to talk in a long-winded manner.
