Crossword Genius

One monotonously reciting viewpoint — one read, in part (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intoner

'one monotonously reciting' is the definition.
(someone who intones)

'viewpoint one read in part' is the wordplay.
'in part' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'INTONER' is hidden in the letters of 'viewpoint one read'.

(Other definitions for intoner that I've seen before include "Participant in service" , "Someone who speaks monotonously - iron net (anag)" , "chanter" , "eg, a monk?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
