He returned to India to work as a journalist, and his earliest poems and stories were published in newspapers; his first book, Departmental Ditties, and Other Verses (1886), was followed by many more, including collected short stories and the children's tales for which he is still widely remembered. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1907. Thomas Stearns Eliot was born in St Louis, Missouri, in 1888. He came to England in 1914 and published his first book of poems in 1917.
