His fame rests largely on his novels A Room with a View (1908), Howards End (1910) and A Passage to India (1924). He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in different years. In 1914, he visited India. By this time he had written all, except one of his novels. Forster spent a second spell in India in the early 1920 as the private secretary to Tukojirao III, the Maharajah of Dewas. The Hill of Devi is his non-fictional account of this period. The book consists of the letters he wrote home during his two visits, with additional commentary analysing his experience in the country. The title draws inspiration from a hill in Dewas where a temple to the goddess Durga Devi is located. After returning to London, he completed his last novel. A Passage to India. This novel is set against; the backdrop of the British Raj and the Indian independence movement in the 1920s. It was selected as one of the 100 great works of 20th century English literature by the Modem Library and won the 1924 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction.
