Thanks for the invitation to help you with a subtitle. I'm honored!
I wonder—is there text in this graphic journal?
Regardless, here are my thoughts. I like to find the fewest words that can hit the gist of the message. So, for instance, the word "man" doesn't necessarily need to be in the subtitle since it's in the title. It seems that you are pretty attached to "illustrated" and maybe that's necessary for when a potential reader can't easily see that (by flipping through the book for example). Here are some ideas:
"An illustrated journey to one man's truth."
"An illustrated journey toward wholeness and healing"
Oh, and I should have said, your drawings are amazing and you are be to be commended for the work that must have gone into this book. Congratulations and well done!

Hi Don! To your question about text, yes -- imagine a picture book with text on the left page and a drawing on the right page.
I'll let other folks weigh in over the next few days before I start making any decisions about the ideas shared.
Thanks so much for your reflections and ideas!

The first one. Is it possible to ship worldwide? I live in Italy.
Thank you!
Thanks Stefano! And yes, I'll be using a printer that also handles worldwide shipping 🤠
