True-to-life style (7)
I believe the answer is:
realism
'true-to-life style' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for realism that I've seen before include "Accurate representation (in art)" , "Unromantic view of the world" , "19th-century French artistic movement -- mailers (anag)" , "Practicality of mailers" , "Reliance on facts" .)
