Sorry semi reconstructed for miserable singer (9)
I believe the answer is:
morrissey
'miserable singer' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'sorry semi reconstructed' is the wordplay.
'reconstructed' is an anagram indicator.
'sorry'+'semi'='sorrysemi'
'sorrysemi' with letters rearranged gives 'MORRISSEY'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for morrissey that I've seen is " Singer-songwriter".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
