Mail unfair in review for novel (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unfamiliar

'novel' is the definition.
(novel can mean new or unfamiliar)

'mail unfair in review' is the wordplay.
'in review' indicates an anagram.
'mail'+'unfair'='mailunfair'
'mailunfair' is an anagram of 'UNFAMILIAR'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for unfamiliar that I've seen before include "Unknown" , "Not recognised" , "Strange" , "novel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
