Cuomo described the book as “a collection of my journals, emails, letters, photos, and school papers — so you get an inside look as to exactly what I was thinking [when I wrote Pinkerton]”. The book covers the years [[1994]] to [[1997]], beginning on [[May 10]], 1994, the day ''[[The Blue Album]]'' was released. Cuomo’s personal journals included in the book detail everything from the confusion and excitement of trying to figure out romance, to the physically and emotionally harrowing medical struggles he underwent for over a year to correct a congenital leg length discrepancy. Also included are Cuomo’s lyric notebooks, music compositions, and studio notes from the ''Pinkerton'' sessions. As it is meant to be a companion piece to ''Alone III'', the CD is stored in the back of the book. | Cuomo described the book as “a collection of my journals, emails, letters, photos, and school papers — so you get an inside look as to exactly what I was thinking [when I wrote Pinkerton]”.
