Blunt, Richard? Son in trouble? After American poet? (5,9)
I believe the answer is:
emily dickinson
'poet?' is the definition.
(I know that Emily Dickinson is a poet)
'blunt richard? son in trouble? after american' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'son' is 'nso' which is present in the answer.
'in' is within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
