Artist Norman Thelwell is best known for his cartoons depicting
plump, petulant ponies and their young riders, but The Effluent
Society shows another aspect of his work and character. Thelwell
was passionate about the countryside and nature. During his life he
became increasingly concerned about the impact of development,
pollution and society's treatment of the environment. When The
Effluent Society was first published in 1971, his concerns were way
ahead of their time. Today, environmental and conservation issues
are in the mainstream and have become a global priority. Although
the cartoons focus on a serious topic there is no mistaking
Thelwell's inimitable style. He used his talent and humour to
convey a powerful message: the need to protect the environment. He
also takes a wry look at modern life and so-called progress.
Thelwell admitted that out of all his books, The Effluent Society
was the one that gave him the greatest 'personal satisfaction' and,
as such, the re-issue of this title is a fitting tribute to the
artist.
