Synopsis
A Dog of Flanders is a novel about a boy named Nello and his dog Patrasche, written by Marie Louise de la Ramée under the pseudonym Ouida in 1872. It is widely read in Japan, and has been adapted into several films and anime. The story is little known in Belgium, and then primarily because of the tourists it attracts to Antwerp.
