Description of furious screams from friend clutching edge (6)
I believe the answer is:
primal
'description of furious screams from' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'friend clutching edge' is the wordplay.
'friend' becomes 'pal' (pal can mean a friend).
'clutching' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'edge' becomes 'rim' (rim is a kind of edge).
'pal' enclosing 'rim' is 'PRIMAL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for primal that I've seen before include "Primitive or fundamental" , "From a very early time" , "First; primitive" , "Existing from the beginning, basic" , "Original; chief" .)
