Remarkable pleasure losing article in drive back (7)
I believe the answer is:
repulse
'drive back' is the definition.
('repulse' can be a synonym of 'drive back')
'remarkable pleasure losing article' is the wordplay.
'remarkable' is an anagram indicator.
'losing' suggests deleting specific letters.
'article' becomes 'a' (indefinite article).
'pleasure' with 'a' removed is 'plesure'.
'plesure' is an anagram of 'REPULSE'.
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for repulse that I've seen before include "Beat back" , "Send back" , "kick in the teeth" , "Check" , "Fend off" .)
