In 1952 a young violinist,
Audrey Napier-Smith , wrote a fan letter to the Poet Laureate John Masefield. So began an extraordinary correspondence which was to continue without a break until his death at 88. June Knox-Mawer talks to
Audrey Napier-Smith about their relationship and discovers in the letters a very different
Masefield from his public image. Reader DAVID GARTH
