Book Summary 

Cuckold is a powerful historical novel narrated by the unnamed Prince of Mewar, famously known as the husband of Meerabai, the 16th-century saint-poet deeply devoted to Lord Krishna. The novel explores the prince’s emotional turmoil as he struggles with unrequited love and jealousy, feeling overshadowed by Meera’s spiritual devotion. Set against the backdrop of political intrigue, Rajput honour, and looming Mughal threats, the story delves into court politics, warfare, faith, and personal conflict. Through the prince’s introspective voice, Nagarkar portrays his longing for acceptance, his frustration at being unable to compete with a god, and his gradual growth into a more empathetic and self-aware man. Rich in detail, humour, and human vulnerability, Cuckold is both a love story and a sharp exploration of identity, devotion, and the complexities of marriage and power.
