Almost unhappy about a good story (4)
I believe the answer is:
saga
'story' is the definition.
(saga is a kind of story)
'almost unhappy about a good' is the wordplay.
'almost unhappy' becomes 'sa' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'about' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'a good' becomes 'ag' (I've seen this in other clues).
'ag' in reverse letter order is 'ga'.
'sa'+'ga'='SAGA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for saga that I've seen before include "Lengthy tale" , "Heroic narrative" , "Long heroic tale" , "Tale of heroes" , "Account of great heroism" .)
