She bought Julians Park in 1940 following her third marriage to the Hon Peter Pleydell-Bouverie. Audrey was a patron of the arts and it is believed that she bound several books herself as many books from her library were stamped with her name and she owned a group of bookbinding tools. Her circle of friends included Winston Churchill Coco Chanel and Nancy Mitford. She was featured in Cecil Beaton's 'Book of Beauty' and was regarded as one of the Bright Young Things.

André Masson illustrating André Maurois' Swiftian novel.From the edition limited to 155 copies signed by the author artist and publisher with this one of 104 nominatif examples on vélin pur chiffon de RIves.'Parodiant Jonathan Swift . André Maurois composa une fantaisie d'un pays gullivérien où la race sur l'habitat de laquelle un couple est abandonné est mue par la soif plutôt que par la faim sexuelle . Maurois a suggéré à Masson un thème doublement érotique. Non seulement les illustrations de Masson renferment une certaine dose d'humour abstraction faite du portrait de l'auteur qui sert d'introduction mais encore leur sensualité particulièrement dans les couleurs est rarement égalée même dans l'oeuvre de Masson.' see Cramer pg. 122.Cramer 47.
