Overly affectionate mother's job can stay unfinished (7)
I believe the answer is:
jocasta
'overly affectionate mother's job' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for jocasta that I've seen is " tragic queen".)
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
