Cover of record featuring foreign novel (7)
I believe the answer is:
envelop
'cover' is the definition.
(enveloping is a kind of covering)
'record featuring foreign novel' is the wordplay.
'record' becomes 'EP' (abbreviation for extended play record).
'featuring' is an insertion indicator.
'foreign' is an anagram indicator (foreign order of the letters).
'novel' is an anagram of 'nvelo'.
'ep' enclosing 'nvelo' is 'ENVELOP'.
'of' is the link.
(Other definitions for envelop that I've seen before include "Compass" , "Give all-round cover" , "Cover by wrapping" , "Wrap up - pen love (anag)" , "Surround and embrace" .)
