Questions? - possible spoiler
Just started watching this and love it so far. What a great cast. Besides Anna, I especially like Stephen Dillane and Mark Strong in their respective roles. Is this pretty accurate to the book ?
I'm asking because I felt Karenin came off rather sympathetic here. Wondering if he was as written in the book.(He forgave her when she was sick. He tried to patch things up and even allowed Vronsky access to Anna. He consented to a divorce when she got well.) I thought Anna was the more unreasonable of the two.
Btw, I never understood why she rejected his offer of a divorce (he seemed resigned to it), saying she didn't want him to give up everything he'd work for. What did she mean by that.
