I'd say it's impossible to grok GObject by using only the API
reference. The best way to learn GObject is definitely to look at
other people's code. There are so many open source projects using
GObject, I'm sure you will be able to find some example code.

Apart from that, there's a draft for an extended GObject documentation
available here:
