Summary "The Eye of Wilbur Mook" by H. B. Hickey is a whimsical fantasy novel written in the mid-20th century, specifically around the 1940s. The story follows Wilbur Mook, an exceptionally timid man who struggles with his lack of confidence and a tyrannical boss, Pete Bellows. The book explores themes of courage, self-discovery, and transformation as Wilbur embarks on an extraordinary adventure that changes his life. In the narrative, Wilbur's life takes a fantastical turn when he encounters A. J. Merlin, a peculiar old man who promises to help him gain bravery. This leads Wilbur back to the time of King Arthur, where he plays an unexpected role in a quest involving the legendary sword Excalibur. Despite his cowardice, Wilbur gradually learns the value of courage and self-worth as he faces various challenges, including navigating his complicated feelings for his attractive coworker, Miss Burnett, and confronting the bullying nature of Pete Bellows. Through a series of humorous and dangerous encounters, Wilbur ultimately discovers that true bravery comes from within and that he is capable of more than he ever imagined.
