I want to have a better understanding of Gnosticism before I read Vails. What should I read?
Barnstone, Willis; Meyer, Marvin (2003). The Gnostic Bible. Shambhala Books. p.880. ISBN1-57062-242-6.
Barnstone, Willis; Meyer, Marvin (2010). Essential Gnostic Scriptures. Shambhala Books. p.271. ISBN978-1590309254.
Also the Wikipedia page.

>Vails
Do you mean Valis? If so, what the fuck for? It's a mediocre book at best.

Emperor and Galilean by Ibsen is also great if you want some gnostic stuff
