Pacôme Thiellement is a french writer and videographer.
I discovered Pacôme while seeking information about the gnostics.
I found his interview where he explains the gnose using Philip K Dick and the Beatles's song Strawberry fields forever. I was hooked.
He wrote books about The Beatles, Twin Peaks, The Leftovers, The gnostics just to name a few subjects. His essays are always very interesting and inspiring, makes you wanna read more books, watch more movies and listen to more music. overall reading Pacôme made me a better person.He appears in a radio show called Mauvais Genre, and write articles in various magazines such as Rock And Folk.There are some videos of of his conferences on youtube that can be subtittled.
