Quote #1

Hale was only truly fond of the old, six-hundred acre estate in rural New York. At least, that was the only place where Kat had ever heard him say... "We're home." (3.1-3.2)

Who would have thought that a boy whose family owns more homes than a Hollywood star wouldn't feel at home in most of them? Why do you think that is? And what makes the New York estate different?

Quote #2

The air always smelled like the Old Country [...] cabbage and carrots and things simmering for long hours over slow heat in cast-iron pots that would outlive them all. It was, in a word, home,and yet Kat didn't dare say so. (6.10-6.11)

Home is a place that appeals to all the senses. But smells seem particularly interwoven with our memories. What smells remind you of home?

Quote #3

Arturo Taccone's home was really a palace made of stone and wood, surrounded by vineyards and olive trees. [...][ It was no paradise--it was more like a prison. (8.61)

If Taccone's home is a prison, does that make him the warden of his own jail? We have a feeling that Taccone doesn't think his home is a prison. He probably prefers using the terms "fortress" or "heavily guarded castle" to describe the place.
