Full of the macabre touches and dark humor that have made Paula Rego's reputation, Stone Soup is a new version of the traditional Portuguese folktale by her daughter, the designer and writer, Cas Willing. Typically read to children to encourage cooperation in times of scarcity, the fable has existed in numerous incarnations for centuries. We follow the efforts of a young female traveler in her attempt to save herself from starvation, persuading a suspicious townspeople to supply her with food for her mysterious Stone Soup. All of the thirteen watercolor and ink paintings are reproduced here, bringing together Rego’s expressive cast of figures amidst their troubled landscape.

This highly acclaimed book on the leading contemporary artist Paula Rego (b.1935) was first published in 1992, but since then Rego has produced an impressive range of new work. Bringing together a wealth of paintings, drawings and prints, alongside revealing documentary illustrations, a second edition of this book was published in 1997 and included three new chapters and a revised chronology, bibliography and list of exhibitions. This third edition brings this major monograph completely up-to-date and includes a selection of Rego's latest works from her critically praised collections, including Little Red Riding Hood, Jane Eyre and the remarkable Triptych and Abortion series. This new edition also includes fully revised and extended endmatter.
