Bacon pieces? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

essays

'bacon pieces?' is the definition.
(Francis Bacon was an essayist)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for essays that I've seen before include "literary work" , "Short pieces of writing on a particular subject" , "Literary compositions" , "Makes experimental attempts" , "Compostions and tracts" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
