Swapna Liddle's book, The Broken Script, focuses on the period of Delhi's history between 1803 and 1857, during which the Mughal dynasty was in decline and the East India Company began to exert greater control over the city. Liddle's study examines the profound changes that occurred in Delhi during this "hybrid half-century" when the two regimes overlapped and Delhi was at the cusp of modernity. The book explores the impact of British rule on Delhi and the ways in which the city's culture and society were transformed during this period.
