Concerning story not being too far gone (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reparable

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

'not being too far gone' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'concerning story' is the wordplay.
'concerning' becomes 're' (both can mean on a particular topic).
'story' becomes 'parable' (parable is a kind of story).
're'+'parable'='REPARABLE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reparable that I've seen before include "Able to be rectified" , "Able to be fixed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
