'page' is the definition.
(right-hand page of an open book)

'in the correct order' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'RECTO' is hidden within 'correct order'.

'to be read' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for recto that I've seen before include "right page" , "No leaves left" , "front of leaf" , "Right-hand page of an open book" , "Odd-numbered page" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
