I know that I shall kick myself when someone explains but..... how do you parse the answer (presumably UTOPIAN) to 14 down - "More work for one that's an idealistic reformer" (7) ??

Utopia was written by More, so More work...

Thomas More wrote UTOPIA, but I don't see how to justify the N in the wordplay - "one that's an idealistic reformer" being the definition.

Thank you malone and chrise. I should have remembered Thomas More and Utopia! Self-kicking time.

The parsing of the N is unexplained/non-existent.

Has anybody else noticed that the clueing by Cullen is much looser and inexact since his/her return than it was during his/her previous existence several years ago?
