The name Gourango has two Os. The book suggests that he lost the second O and transformed into Gourang by undertaking his journey from Calcutta to Delhi. Every year, there is a huge exodus of law graduates from different parts of the country to Delhi in search of better opportunities. The author here throws another challenge to the reader, did she also lose her O, or A, or I? Or is she in process of losing the same while reading it? Or worse, is she gaining an O? Interestingly, characters apart from Gourango, such as Roopa and Noor also carry two Os. While the author made Gourango lose his O, one must read the book to ascertain if through their journeys, Noor and Roopa could retain theirs.
