Describes person with swollen head and mangled organ, to be incorporated into creative work? (8)
I believe the answer is:
arrogant
'describes person with swollen head' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'mangled organ to be incorporated into creative work?' is the wordplay.
'mangled' indicates an anagram.
'to be incorporated into' indicates putting letters inside.
'creative work?' becomes 'art' (artwork).
'organ' anagrammed gives 'rogan'.
'rogan' put within 'art' is 'ARROGANT'.
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for arrogant that I've seen before include "Proud and overbearing, feeling superior" , "Cocky" , "Public speaker" , "High and mighty" , "Overly self-important" .)
