Month away from uni, it surprisingly brings enjoyment (8)
I believe the answer is:
fruition
'enjoyment' is the definition.
(I know that fruition is a type of enjoyment)
'month away from uni it surprisingly' is the wordplay.
'month' becomes 'M' (standard abbreviation).
'away' suggests deleting specific letters.
'surprisingly' indicates an anagram (a surprising ordering of the letters).
'from'+'uni'+'it'='fromuniit'
'fromuniit' with 'm' taken away is 'frouniit'.
'frouniit' anagrammed gives 'FRUITION'.
'brings' acts as a link.
(Another definition for fruition that I've seen is " Realisation, fulfilment".)
