This collection features forty-eight essays all written in neatly categorized essays, all bringing the Seagull Reader into discussion. The book is divided into three parts, each discussing a different topic or a section within the novel. Part one is focused on the life of Kelly Driscoll, how he came to write The Seagull Reader, and how his work influenced so many others.

Part two covers the topics of love and death, the past and the present, as well as how death relates to the future. The third part, which is the shortest of the three, brings us to the present and examines the philosophical views of life. Some of the short poems included are "Happily Ever After", "Dead Man's Shoes", and "Love Among The Ruins". Within these short poems, the different perspectives give the reader much information regarding the characters. One poem in particular, "The Lullaby of Hill Bill", gives insight into the viewpoint of a war vet who lost his best friend in the war.
