re: Outlander (spoilers)

I watch this show but I have not read the books.

My wife has read them and she informed me that Frank is represented better in the show than he was in the books. Mainly dealing around how in the show it alluded to an open marriage agreement but for the books that was not the case.

So the show does seem to paint Claire more in a negative light from that perspective IMO, makes me less sympathetic to her situation versus someone who has read the books. I get you are separated from the person you love, but all the show did was allude to the fact that Frank tried to reconnect multiple times and was rebuffed then given green light to sleep with co-eds.
