Jean —, author of 1929 novel Les Enfants terribles (7)

I believe the answer is:

cocteau

(Other definitions for cocteau that I've seen before include "Novelist and film-maker" , "Jean -, French poet, actor, director" , "French writer and film maker, d. 1963" , "Dramatist" , "French artist and film director" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
