Episode from lurid teen novel (9)
I believe the answer is:
interlude
'episode' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'lurid teen novel' is the wordplay.
'novel' indicates anagramming the letters.
'lurid'+'teen'='luridteen'
'luridteen' with letters rearranged gives 'INTERLUDE'.
'from' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for interlude that I've seen before include "Space of time; break" , "Entr'acte" , "Breathing space" , "Short performance during an interval" , "Eli turned (anag.)" .)
