What’s Up With the Title?

The title of the book—Will Grayson, Will Grayson—is pretty cut and dry. It refers to the two Will Graysons who narrate the novel and serve as its main characters. Pretty simple, right? Of course, what's not so simple is the idea of identity. Who exactly are we? Will Grayson and will grayson are pretty different guys, but they share something pretty major—their names. How interchangeable are their lives? How divergent are they? Yup. This title might be easy to explain, but it also starts to ask some really interesting questions.
