Party votes to change very high limit for author (10)
I believe the answer is:
dostoevsky
'author' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Russian author ' mean 'dostoevsky' so perhaps 'author' could also mean 'dostoevsky')
'party votes to change very high limit' is the wordplay.
'party' becomes 'do' (do is a kind of party).
'to change' is an anagram indicator.
'very high limit' becomes 'sky' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'votes' with letters rearranged gives 'stoev'.
'do'+'stoev'+'sky'='DOSTOEVSKY'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for dostoevsky that I've seen is " Russian author".)
