Crossword Genius

Circle rarity - it upset reviewer (8,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

literary critic

'reviewer' is the definition.
(I know that literary critic is a type of reviewer)

'circle rarity it upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates anagramming the letters.
'circle'+'rarity'+'it'='circlerarityit'
'circlerarityit' with letters rearranged gives 'LITERARY CRITIC'.

(Another definition for literary critic that I've seen is " One will review".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
