Eliot attracted widespread attention for his poem The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock in this book, which is seen as a masterpiece of the Modernist movement. It was followed by some of the best-known poems in the English language, including The Waste Land in this book, The Hollow Men , Ash Wednesday and Four Quartets . He is also known for his seven plays, particularly Murder in the Cathedral. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948, "for his outstanding, pioneer contribution to present-day poetry".
