I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'carbon copy in entirety rewritten' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'heart of metropolis' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'heart' could be 'centre' (synonyms) and 'centre' is found within the answer.
'metropolis' could be 'city' (a metropolis is a large city) and 'city' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'at' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for city centre that I've seen before include "Focal point of urban area" , "metropolitan area" , "Bullring, say" , "Downtown" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
