If you go and check many of the most famous western canon books, you’ll find cucks as a central part of the story . My favorite example is “The Iliad”, cuckoldry is the thing that drives the entire plot of the poem. And it doesn’t stop there, Anna Karenina, Madame Bovary, The Great Gatsby and so on.
What are your favorite cuck books and characters?

Hester thought her husband dead at the time, but I'd say the Scarlet Letter still qualifies. The husband reinventing himself as creepy Doctor Chillingworth, stalking and tormenting Dimmesdale, is pure cuckkino. I like that the story mostly sticks to the Puritan moral worldview (presenting itself as a lost narrative from that time) and doesn't go for the "actually it was a good thing and they ran off to be together forever." It's a tragedy all around, but at least Hester does something with her life while the moids destroy themselves.
This isn't a cuck story but The Sorrows of Young Werther is the og incel book and I did a post about it a while back

Also there's a Bible sequence that explains the relationship between God and Israel with God as a cuckold husband who still loves his wife.
