If you're aiming to do nonlinear PDE, then see Brezis for basic functional analysis with some nonlinear topics scattered throughout the text (and very hard exercises and problems), or Lax which will take you from basic to advanced topics relevant for PDEs.

Functional Analysis by Lax is the most famous one I know of: http://www.amazon.com/Functional-Analysis-Peter-D-Lax/dp/0471556041.
Not sure about gentle though.

Do you have a specialization? You might be able to get your feet wet with a book that deals with functional analysis applied to your topic of interest. Me personally, I did PDEs and there are some neat books that have both PDEs and how functional analysis is used for them.
