uninformative

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'little away' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'unusually furtive minoan' is the wordplay.
'unusually' is an anagram indicator.
'furtive'+'minoan'='furtiveminoan'
'furtiveminoan' with letters rearranged gives 'UNINFORMATIVE'.

'giving' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
