"Adam Bede” author (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eliot

'adam bede author' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for eliot that I've seen before include "Author of Adam Bede, d.1880" , "T.S. --, poet" , "Four Quartets poet" , "Murder in the Cathedral author" , "thin material rejected" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal and the King Feature Syndicate.
