This book is aimed at biblical and classical scholars. It resolves one of the most striking questions about the Book of Revelation: what is its literary genre? John chooses a literary form, similar to that of the short story, allowing him to use time-space coordinates flexibly, to dramatize the text and to take his time in describing his visions.
