Cheap fiction? It provides place for preacher (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pulpit

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

'place for preacher' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.

'cheap fiction? it' is the wordplay.
'cheap fiction?' becomes 'pulp' (I've seen this before).
'pulp'+'it'='PULPIT'

'provides' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pulpit that I've seen before include "Preacher's rostrum" , "Preacher's platform" , "desk" , "From which to preach sermons" , "Structure for a sermon" .)
