Summary "Ystävykset" by Ouida is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around two inseparable friends, Nello, a young orphan from Ardenne, and Patras, a loyal Flemish dog, as they navigate the trials of poverty and companionship in a small village near Antwerp. Their bond is deeply nurtured through shared struggles, portraying themes of friendship, love, and aspiration. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Nello and Patras, who live in a humble cottage on the outskirts of a picturesque Flemish village. Both characters are orphans; Nello is raised by an elderly man named Jean Daas, who has suffered the scars of war and has taken Nello in as family. The boys share their days filled with hard work and dreams of a better life. While Patras is a large, strong dog, providing both companionship and assistance to the aging Jean, Nello harbors artistic ambitions driven by admiration for the renowned artist Rubens. Their lives take a poignant turn when circumstances challenge their friendship and dreams, setting the stage for an emotionally gripping narrative that explores their loyalty and resilience in the face of adversity.
