Python's a good starting language. The syntax is pretty easy to pick up and doesn't get in the way of the actual programming, plus it's just a fun language. This (http://greenteapress.com/thinkpython/) is a good starting book, and there are also tutorials on Python's official site.

Yes, you can make GUIs in python.

And I'd agree that it's a good language to start with.

Python also has a pretty easy to use game moduel (pygame). I don't know if that's your thing or not, but lots of new programmers like seeing that they're actually doing something, and a game gives a good sense of accomplishment.
