D.H. Lawrence’s “Apocalypse”.
It’s definitely not a scholarly work. It’s basically Lawrence shitposting about the Book of Revelation for a couple hundred pages, but it’s still a good read.

You're not going to get any gainful knowledge about the Apocalypses because most people dont know what they're talking about so I'll try my best.

The seven candlesticks are given. They are a representation in the Spirit of being particular churches. Jesus has a very Godly look proclaiming that he is the beginning and the end. That He Is God that we read about in the Bible. He is the perfect representation of the Father who we cannot see. Then as we go John is invited to the Spirit to the Court of the Most High. We see Jesus again but as a bloodied lamb who is The Only other entity worthy of sitting next to GOD and worshipped as God. We see the Court has attendees and some we've seen before in the other books. The Seven Spirits of GOD as represented by the menorah and the star of david. The four Angel's who are covered in eyes and look like living creatures. 24 elders. Countless Angel's and countless saints. The LORD reveals a scroll in his hand to the court. An angel asks who's worthy to open Gods scroll? Only Jesus can so one by one we open it but as we are about to reveal the 7th one we begin another 7, then again.

What we need to understand is that GOD wants to reveal what His Court looks like and who's there. That Jesus has won and His death was His Enthronememt. That GOD judges all things rightly with all of us involved. That just as he drew out his people in Egypt so would he bring about His Promise of making everything right again. So much so that he will describe how He will. But on His time which is a mystery to everyone.
