Russian poet to practise nepotism? (7)
I believe the answer is:
pushkin
'russian poet' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pushkin that I've seen before include "Russian poet, author and dramatist" , "As writer" , "Boris Godunov poet" .)
