Quote #4
The Jinni followed Arbeely's advice and took a room in a nearby tenement. (9.14)
It doesn't really matter where the Jinni lives because his real home is outside on the rooftops. He could be in a hovel or in Trump Tower and he'd still feel like he was living in a crate.
Quote #5
"What Mr. Levy doesn't know won't hurt him," the housekeeper whispered, and struck Joseph Schall from the next day's departure list. (14.18)
Speaking of immigrants, Schall (formerly Schaalman) finds himself in need of a home after getting off the boat in New York City. Everyone has to make a home somehow, and Schall does it by conning his way into the Sheltering House's good graces.
Quote #6
[The dance hall] felt more like home than any other place in New York, but in the face of this shocking familiarity, [the Jinni] found that the gulf between his home and himself had only grown. (18.154)
It's hard to find a place where you feel comfortable, even in a place as crowded as New York City. And for the Jinni, the dance hall is a double-edged sword. It reminds him of home, which is good, but it also reminds him of what he has lost.
