Sheets of novel in English (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

linen

'sheets' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'of novel in english' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'LINEN' can be found hidden inside 'novel in english'.

(Other definitions for linen that I've seen before include "Fabric from the fibres of the flax plant" , "Spun fibres of flax" , "Cloth made from flax" , "bedding" , "fabricated? This is" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
