File LookStranger.jpg thumb right 1st edition UK On This Island is a book of poems by W. H. Auden , first published under the title Look, Stranger in the UK in 1936, then published under Auden s preferred title, On this Island , in the US in 1937. The book contains thirty one poems. The opening Prologue O Love the interest itself in thoughtless heaven is followed by short and long poems including Hearing of harvests , O what is that sound , Out on the lawn , Brothers who when the sirens roar , Love had him fast , A shilling life , Our hunting fathers , and others, ending with an Epilogue Certainly our city . The title of Auden s typescript was Thirty One Poems . Auden s UK publisher Faber & Faber asked him to supply a better title, but he was traveling in Iceland and inaccessible, so the publisher titled the book Look, Stranger Auden disliked the title and asked his American publisher Random House to title the book On This Island . The book is dedicated to Erika Mann . A song cycle of the same name by Benjamin Britten sets five of Auden s poems. References John Fuller poet John Fuller , W. H. Auden A Commentary 1999 .
