Why this must be read:

I love reading fics from different points of veiw than the norm. Sometimes, no matter how good the fic is, you do get tired of the same characters over and over again. This fic is pretty much everything I'd been looking for in a multiple perspective story. It tells the story of the aftermath of the movie from many different points of veiw- if the title hadn't clues you in already (seven to be exact).

While the plot isn't too original when you think hard about it, the way of telling the story is so interesting you don't even realize. The author manages to get into the heads of the characters so well you feel as if you're actually there int eh story feeling what they feel and seeing what they see.


From Chapter 3: Through The Eyes Of A Boy

This is so cool. I like Superman, and I like Mr. Clark. He’s funny. And he has cool ties, even though they always smell like coffee. If he comes back tomorrow night, I’ll tell him that I know who he is.

“Goodnight!” I call out the window when he leaves. He turns back, smiling, then he looks down at the lawn. Mom is down there, holding her cigarettes and lighter. She was supposed to not smoke anymore. Maybe he’ll get her to stop for real. Daddy never could. I wonder where Daddy is. He’s missing Superman!

Wow, Mom’s so lucky. Superman is taking her flying and she’s not even being rescued. I wonder if he’ll take me sometime. I wonder if someday I’ll be able to fly, too, because he’s my dad. I’ll ask mom. She knows everything. If she doesn’t know, I’ll ask Superman because he probably knows even more than mom. He’s from a different planet, after all.
