Winston Smith may be another one (8)
I believe the answer is:
antihero
'winston smith' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'may be another one' is the wordplay.
'may be' indicates anagramming the letters.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'another'+'i'='anotheri'
'anotheri' is an anagram of 'ANTIHERO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for antihero that I've seen before include "baddie" , "Character such as Meursault" , "Central character lacking traditional courageous attributes" , "Unconventional principal character" , "Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984, for example" .)
