A slim young man surprisingly showing generosity (13)
I believe the answer is:
magnanimously
'showing generosity' is the definition.
'a slim young man surprisingly' is the wordplay.
'surprisingly' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'slim'+'young'+'man'='aslimyoungman'
'aslimyoungman' is an anagram of 'MAGNANIMOUSLY'.
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
